'Papilio dardanus' is the scientific, Latin or binomial name for the African Swallowtail Butterfly. Other common names include 'Mocker Swallowtail' and 'Flying Handkerchief'. But 'African Swallowtail' is perhaps the most familiar of the common names. It's geographically the most precise, what with the butterfly's native range in sub-Saharan Africa.
