Scarce swallowtail as far as the Arabian Peninsula, Pakistan, India and western China. A few specimens of the scarce swallowtail have been reported from central Sweden and the United Kingdom but they were probably only strays and not migrants. These swallowtail butterflies inhabit gardens, towns as well as the countryside, in fields and open woodlands. They are found in places with sloe thickets and particularly orchards. In the Alps they can be found up to altitudes of 2000 m., but usually they prefer foothills and lower levels.

Quarter-comma meantone are observed for all interval types, except for unisons and octaves, and they are all multiples of ε, the difference between the quarter-comma meantone fifth and the average fifth. Notice that, as an obvious consequence, each augmented or diminished interval is exactly 12"ε" cents (≈ 41.1 cents) wider or narrower than its enharmonic equivalent. For instance, the diminished sixth (or wolf fifth) is 12"ε" cents wider than each perfect fifth, and each augmented second is 12"ε" cents narrower than each minor third. This interval of size 12"ε" is known as a diesis, or diminished second. This implies that "ε" can
