Two-tailed Swallowtail

Two-tailed Swallowtail
Papilio multicaudata - Two-tailed Swallowtail - Many of the older maps have this species occurring in a range starting about 150 miles West of Austin.  However, newer maps have shifted this direction either by correction or expansion of its native range.  I find them frequently in Austin in close proximity to Escarpment black cherry trees.
