Graphium empedovana is a species of butterfly of the family Papilionidae, that is found in the Philippines (Balabac, Busuanga, Palawan). The species was first described by Alexander Steven Corbet in 1941.
Sometimes regarded as a subspecies of Graphium codrus and sometimes as conspecific with Graphium empedocles. D'Abrera, 1982: p. 96, places it as subspecies Graphium codrus empedovana.
The larva feeds on Hernandia peltata.
