looks like : Emperor Swallowtail Butterfly (Papilio ophidicephalus)

Papilio ophidicephalus Oberthür 1878

I caught one or two samples in Momella (North of Tanzania) in a forest area. Never saw this species in savana area. According this page :

www.biodiversityexplorer.org/butterflies/papilionidae/papilio_ophidicephalus.htm

female are larger than male.

Hoping it would help.

Papilios are very easy to sex. Just check the tip of the abdomen - the claspers are very obvious in males and it's clear that the females don't have them.

It's not the easiest angle to see from but the two you picture look like males.
