This species is known as the Citrus Swallowtail (or Lime Swallowtail) as its
caterpillars feed of various plants in the citrus family. It can be a pest to
citrus orchards. It has a distinct black and yellow scale pattern, especially
around the base of the front wings. The hind wings each have a distinctive
bright red spot and lacks the tails that give the swallowtail family their name.
