Abstract     111 spp., encountered during a 2-month survey in eastern Indonesia, are listed. Specimens were collected at 16 sites within the Oriental and Australian regions. New regional records are: Enploea redtenbacheri Felder & Felder (for New Guinea), Pachliopta polydorus lascatius (Felder & Felder) and Graphium eurypylus lycaonides (Rothschild) (for Biak), and Papilio dentoleus (L.) (for Timor). The most remarkable discoveries are a new ssp. (?) of Euploea alcanthoe (Godart) in southern Irian Jaya and a possibly new Hypochtysops sp. in northern Irian Jaya. These remain here unnamed, though some preliminary descriptive notes are provided.
