Yunnan ; also found in S. China , as well as Nepal to Myanmar and Indochina. Note: Condamine et al. (2023) confirmed the identity of Papilio chaon as a separate species from P. nephelus , found in the Malay Peninsular, Sumatra , Borneo and Java . Thus, the species in Yunnan is correctly P. chaon , with the nominotypical subspecies and ssp. rileyi present in the province.
