321 A SUPPLEMENTARY LIST OF THE BUTTERFLIES OF SIAM. BY E. J. GoDFREY, B. Se., F. E. s. The fo Um,·ing add itions to lllY r evised list* of the butterflies of Siam bring up the total number of species known to occur in t he country from 692 to 727. Se,·eral species obtained r eceutly by Dr. A. F. G. K err in N. E. Siam have not yet been identified. For convenience of reference, I have munbered the new r ecords in sequence, numbers in brackets referring to the corr esponding ones in my previous list. PAPILIONIDAE. 693. Papilio aidoneus Doubt.
