As the arrangement of the species of _Papilio_ which I have adopted in
this paper is somewhat new, and I hope will be found to be more natural
than those which have been previously used, I here add lists of the
Indian and Australian species arranged in the same manner. Those already
included in my Malayan list will be indicated thus, (Mal.), and printed
in _italics_.
