This is not a Parides, it is a Papilio (Heraclides) belonging to the anchiasiades group, and is probably that species.

Thank you again Adam for that proper identification.

P. anchisiades occasionally strays into the U.S. from Mexico. I once saw one nectaring in the flower garden at Sea World in San Antonio, TX. Unfortunately I had no net, but I doubt that collecting is allowed in that park anyway.

Re: Papilio anchiasiades
If it is also from Peru then it must be P. anchisiades, as other species in the group from there look different on the upperside, but if it comes from Central America it may be another species.
