Heraclidesrumiko Shiraiwa & Grishin, sp. n. is described from southwestern United States, Mexico, and Central America (type locality: USA, Texas, Duval County). It is closely allied to Heraclidescresphontes (Cramer, 1777) and the two species are sympatric in central Texas. The new species is diagnosed by male genitalia and exhibits a nearly 3% difference from Heraclidescresphontes in the COI DNA barcode sequence of mitochondrial DNA. The two Heraclides species can usually be told apart by the shape and size of yellow spots on the neck, by the wing shape, and the details of wing patterns. "Western Giant Swallowtail" is proposed as the English name for Heraclidesrumiko. To stabilize nomenclature, neotype for Papiliocresphontes Cramer, 1777, an eastern United States species, is designated from Brooklyn, New York, USA; and lectotype for Papiliothoas Linnaeus, 1771 is designated from Suriname. We sequenced DNA barcodes and ID tags of nearly 400 Papilionini specimens completing coverage of all Heraclides species. Comparative analyses of DNA barcodes, genitalia, and facies suggest that Heraclidesoviedo (Gundlach, 1866), reinstated status, is a species-level taxon rather than a subspecies of Heraclidesthoas (Linnaeus, 1771); and Heraclidespallas (G. Gray, [1853]), reinstated status, with its subspecies HeraclidesPapiliobajaensis (J. Brown & Faulkner, 1992), comb. n., and Heraclidesanchicayaensis Constantino, Le Crom & Salazar, 2002, stat. n., are not conspecific with Heraclidesastyalus (Godart, 1819).
白岩和格里申新种赫拉克勒斯蝶（Heraclides rumiko Shiraiwa & Grishin）分布于美国西南部、墨西哥和中美洲（模式产地：美国得克萨斯州杜瓦尔县）。它与赫拉克勒斯巨凤蝶（Heraclides cresphontes (Cramer, 1777)）关系密切，这两个物种在得克萨斯州中部同域分布。新物种通过雄性生殖器来鉴别，并且在线粒体DNA的细胞色素氧化酶亚基I（COI）DNA条形码序列中，它与赫拉克勒斯巨凤蝶存在近3%的差异。这两种赫拉克勒斯蝶通常可以通过颈部黄斑的形状和大小、翅膀形状以及翅膀图案的细节来区分。“西部巨燕尾蝶”被提议作为赫拉克勒斯蝶（Heraclides rumiko）的英文名。为稳定命名法，1777年命名的美国东部物种克里森凤蝶（Papilio cresphontes Cramer）的新模式标本被指定来自美国纽约布鲁克林；1771年命名的苏里南凤蝶（Papilio thoas Linnaeus）的选模标本被指定来自苏里南。我们对近400个凤蝶族标本的DNA条形码和身份标签进行了测序，涵盖了所有赫拉克勒斯蝶物种。对DNA条形码、生殖器和形态的比较分析表明，恢复地位的奥维iedo赫拉克勒斯蝶（Heraclides oviedo (Gundlach, 1866)）是一个物种级分类单元，而非托阿斯赫拉克勒斯蝶（Heraclides thoas (Linnaeus, 1771)）的一个亚种；恢复地位且包含其亚种巴哈赫拉克勒斯蝶（Heraclides Papiliobajaensis (J. Brown & Faulkner, 1992)，新组合）和安奇卡亚赫拉克勒斯蝶（Heraclides anchicayaensis Constantino, Le Crom & Salazar, 2002，新地位）的帕拉斯赫拉克勒斯蝶（Heraclides pallas (G. Gray, [18
