A total of 199 individuals of the family Papilionidae deposited in the Entomological Collection of the Natural History Museum of Cauca University (MHN-UniCauca), Popayán, Cauca, Colombia, were revised. The biological material has been collected by students, teachers and researchers from 1940’s to the present date. Nine genera, 40 species and 58 subspecies were identified. The most abundant species were H. thoas neacles (Rothschild & Jordan, 1906) (10), H. paeon thrason (Felder & Felder, 1865) (10), P. telesilaus (Felder & Felder, 1864) (10), E. serville acritus (Rothschild & Jordan, 1906) (9) y P. eurimedes agathokles (Kollar, 1850) (9) H. thoas neacles (Rothschild & Jordan, 1906) (10), H. paeon thrason (Felder & Felder, 1865) (10), P. telesilaus (Felder & Felder, 1864) (10), E.
serville acritus (Rothschild & Jordan, 1906) (9) and P. eurimedes agathokles (Kollar, 1850) (9), while 20 subspecies were represented by a single specimen. Descriptive analyses were made regarding the collection activity of the biological material and the collectors themselves throughout the existence of Natural History Museum, as well as altitudinal and geographical distribution. The analysis of the quality of the inventory established that the potential richness of subspecies of family Papilionidae in the Entomological Collection of the University of Cauca is 83.73 (slope = 0.21; percentage of observed species = 59.72), which indicates that although the number of registered subspecies is high and the quality of the inventory is acceptable, there are missing subspecies of Papilionidae to be registered for the area.
