One of the less common of the endemic Cuban swallowtails, the
species is extremely local and seasonal in occurence but widespread on
the island. It seems more frequent in the east. Female is shown to the
right and is a mimic of Battus devilliers,
while the male has been proposed as a mimic (?) of
Battus
polydamas.
