My latest capture, in the yard here at home, I netted her after she deposited ova on the weeping willow.
No need to go into the field. Papilio rutulus I assume, although I don't think I've seen one this pale.

It took some looking, but today I found one of her ova, would've been easier yesterday when my memory was fresh. I put a sleeve
over it and that's that. I'll keep the female as well.

Hard to say; could be just worn that way, or could be the Insufficient Scale Quotient form.

Once I put her on the spreading board, she showed more yellow. Probably just a worn female rutulus, I did sleeve one of her ova, all I could find...
and reach.
Watching them deposit eggs is a pleasure. I don't think she laid any eggs once I brought her indoors, I have to check the flight cage and the willow
I gave her.
