At break of day I sent my comrades forth to bring the body of Elpenor from the palace.
A hybrid, resulting from a pairing between Chrocampa elpenor and Metopsilus porcellus has been named elpenorcellus (Staud).
In Porcellus the caterpillar emerges from the egg with the subdorsal line, the first stage of Elpenor being omitted.
This may be seen especially from the speech of Elpenor in Od.
The first stage of Elpenor shows that the most remote ancestor of the genus possessed no kind of marking, but was uniformly green.
