Papilio doddsi is a species of swallowtail butterfly from the genus Papilio that is found in Vietnam.[1]

Resembles Papilio dialis. Tail either quite short or long, broad and spatulate, with all the intermediate stages. Male only with red anal eye-spot on the upperside of the hindwing, female in addition with red submarginal spot. The black basal area on the underside of the forewing reaches to the base of the upper median, and in the female, which I [Jordan] only know from the description, probably does not extend quite so far. Tonkin. Karl Jordan in Seitz.[2]
