Papilio horribilis Butler 1874

Papilio horribilis Butler
Papilio horribilis Butler, 1872 [1869-1874]: 88; pi. 39, fig. 2 (Ashanti). Condamin and Roy, 1963: 418; fig. 2b.
This species differs from the preceding both in male genitalia and by the markings on the hindwings, where there is a row near the margin of four or five (sometimes six) yellow spots, all about the same size and occupying adjacent cells. In hesperus the spot in M1-M2 of the hindwing is almost always missing, though it is sometimes represented by a tiny dot, and the two spots on either side of M3 are very large in comparison with the rest of the series.
The distribution of horribilis is from Sierra Leone to Cameroon. Condamin and Roy (1963) record 11 males from the Nimbas; Condamin ( 195 1 ) records a male from eastern Liberia. I found a female ovipositing in Wanau Forest. The male I captured in the Wangazi range of Guinea was sipping at a puddle.
Liberia: Wanau Forest, 1 ? , II (Fox); Pata, 1 $ , II (Condamin, 1951).
Guinea: Wangazi range, road from Macenta to 'Nzerekore, 1 S , IV (Fox); Nimba region, 11 8 (Condamin and Roy, 1963).
