568 JOURNAL, BOMBAY NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY, Vol. XIX. 



Zizera malia. 

 Identified by comparison with specimens in Bombay Natural History Society 

 collection, but I am doubtful of the locality and season. 



Zizera lysimon, Hiib, 

 Fairly common, Khandwa and Burhanpur. Rains. 



Zizera aaika, Tri. 

 Only taken at Khandwa in Public Gardens. October. 



Azamis Jesotis, Juerin. 

 Only taken once in August 1907 at Khandwa, on open ground. 



Lamp ides hochus. 

 Rare. Taken once in September on Asirgarh and once at Burhanpur. The 

 brilliant ii-ridescent blue of the upper side makes this species a conspicuous 

 insect. 



Nacadtiba ardates, Moore. 

 Not common, but fairly numerous where found. Mandwa. September. 



Nacaduba pavana, Horsf. 

 Identified as such by Mr. Lefroy. Scarce. Burhanpur. September. 



Catochrijsops straho, Fabr. 

 Fairly common. Rains and cold weather. Identified by Mi-, Lefroy. 



Catochrysops cnejusj Fabr. 

 Common everywhere, rains and cold weather. This and the following 

 species are perhaps the commonest and most numerous of all the LycmnidcB 

 excepting only Tarucus theoph7-astus. 



Catochrysops pandava, Hors. 

 Common everywhere, rains and cold weather. 



Tarucus theophrasius, Fabr. 

 The commonest Lycanid in the District, Found everywhere, rains and cold 

 weather, especially on waste ground covered with Cassia tora and Sophera, 

 commonly known as the wild Indigo, which is, I fancy, the food plant of the 

 larvae, 



Tarucus plinius^ Fabr. 

 Not so common as preceding. Burhanpur, September. 



Polyomnatus hoeticus, Linn. 

 Only taken once at Burhanpur on 25th September 1907. 



Aplmoeus vidcanus, Fabr. 

 Identified as such by Mr. Lefroy. 



This insect is fairly common in September-October when the Reunj (Acacia 

 leucophha) trees are in flower and may then be seen in considerable numbers 

 in company with other Lyccbnidce, flying round these trees and settling on the 

 flower heads. 



I have also found it partial to the flowers of the Babul (Acacia urabica).
