The pupal cuticle cleavage patterns of 100 species in 7 families in Papilionoidea were examined. The cleavage patterns are roughly constant in each species. The patterns were classified into 6 groups based on the longitudinal cleavage patterns, and each group into finer types, depending on the transverse cleavage patterns. Finally, 26 types were recognized. The cleavage tends to show a certain common mode in each taxa, but, besides, the species which are similar to each other in terms of their ecology has similar cleavage patterns.
