Dear Westwood
I have just received proofs of the last four plates of Papilios. They all appear to me very nice, except the plate of outlines, which I do not think accurately represents the differences between the species compared.
I enclose a tracing from my specimens, of some of them; P[apilio] telephus (fig.4) and P[apilio] miletus & P[apilio] jason (fig.5) which I should be obliged if you could alter [2] a little, so as to show the contrast of the forms, which strike the eye very much in the specimens.
Wishing yourself & Mrs Westwood all the Comp[liment]s of the Season
Believe me| Yours very truly,| Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
