Papilionidae (scientific name: Papilionidae) is a family within the superfamily Papilionidae of butterflies. In the lower classification, there are 3 subfamilies, about 26 genera, and about 600 species [2]. Most of the swallowtail species are medium to large butterflies. Most of them have gorgeous and brightly colored markings on their wings. They are gorgeous in appearance, fly quickly, and have an elegant posture. They are quite eye-catching. Among them are the largest butterflies in the world - the Alexander Birdwing. , the genus Swallowtail contains the smallest swallowtail butterfly. The hind wings of swallowtail butterflies usually have a tail process, so they are also called Swallowtail Butterfly. The hind wings also have only one hip vein, so the abdomen is exposed when the wings are closed, which is the main feature of this classification.
