Butterflies from Taiwan

[atronox]

I believe that the Taiwan subspecies of Papilio memnon, is the same as for Singapore. The female (9a&b) is female f. agenor (formerly f. vinius, which is now treated solely as a variation of f. agenor).

I hope no on e minds if i dig up an old thread bt that is the tailless form of the ssp. heronus. The tailed form resembles f.distantianus or f.achates. I m not sure if there is a scientific name for these 2 forms from taiwan bt pls mention ifu haf come across it. Les, the ssp. for taiwan is heronus. No. 10 is P. dialis tatsuta.
