Papilio ophidicephalus (Emperor Swallowtail) is the the largest butterfly in flight in sub Saharan Africa. (Females are typically larger than males.)
   They are typically found in rainforest and cloud forest habitats.
   They have two broods, one from August - December and the second from January - April.
   There are multiple generations per year so this butterfly can be seen in flight year round.
    They are at low risk and considered to be of least concern.
