Narrative

Parides Anaeus Group text is based on the older Rothschild and Jordan revision of the New World Papilionidae. Changes based on the DAlmeida listing have been noted. Some changes based on various articles have also been included. These are noted to comply with the taxonomy as published in 2004 by Gerardo Lamas in his checklist of Neotropical Lepidoptera. The Rothschild and Jordan text as modified by DAlmeida has been retained because for many years it was the only good source of information on this group. Many serious Neotropical Papilionidae collections in the world are based on the Rothschild and Jordan organization.

Parides anaeus group has white fringe spots on the edge of the wings, especially the rear wing. They lack submarginal spots. The Parides anaeus group contains the following 26 species (an * indicates that this species is pictured):
