A. Kamala, Moore. — Very common, especially before the rains, and female speci- 

 mens may be found late in September. It is fond of settling on the damp margins 

 of the hill streams ; twenty or thirty collected together in one spot is a lovely sight. 

 *A. Lathonia, L. — Abundant in June, and specimens may be found throughout the 

 summer months ; it occurs again in the autumn. 



Limenitis Trivena, Moore. — Common before the rains, and almost always in the 

 neighbourhood of water, and not below 6000 ft. The species in this neighbourhood 

 is very constant, and shows little sign of variation. 



JEuthalia Fatala, Koll. — Common in the neighbourhood of Murree, but not in 

 the Gralis. It occurs on the Kashmir road near Kalabagh, at about 4000 ft. elevation. 



*Pyrameis cardui, L. — Abundant everywhere. *P. indica, H. — Occurs very 

 sparingly at Pindi, a locality where I should certainly not have expected it ; it is 

 common in the hills, generally on the summits, in autumn, when the insect is freshly 

 emerged. Worn specimens maybe found in the spring, and throughout the summer. 



Vanessa Canace, L. — Rather vu:icoramon ; occasional specimens may be taken 

 throughout the summer and autumn months. * V. cashmirensis, Koll. — Abundant 

 in the hills, and quite common at Pindi. Specimens vary somewhat in the depth of 

 colouring. V. xanthomelas, W. V. — I have found this not uncommonly in early 

 summer ; generally in open sunlit spots in pine forests at 8000 ft. elevation. V. c- 

 album, L. — Very common before the rains, and prefers the neighbourhood of hill 

 streams, settling on flowers and bushes overhanging the water ; a second brood 

 appears in August in much smaller numbers. The depth of colouring varies greatly : 

 the second brood is considerably darker and the colouring richer than the first. 



Cyrestis Thyodamas, Bdv. — Common in the neighbourhood of Murree, and on 

 the Kashmir road, 4000 ft. ; it does not occur, so far as I am aware, in the Gralis. 



Kallima Inachis, Bdv. — Occurs at Murree and Abbottabad ; this is probably its 

 extreme western limit. The colouring is paler, and the specimens are rather larger 

 than those from Burma. 



^Libythea Lepita, Moore. — Abundant before and during the rains, and prefers 

 damp spots on the road sides and forest paths. It is a common garden insect at 

 Pindi. There is an autumn brood. 



Dodona Durga, Koll. — I found this locally abundant on dry rocks on the 

 Abbottabad road. This year I have been unable to find a single specimen. 



Lyccena Ariana, Moore. — Common on open hill sides throughout the Gralis in 

 June and July. L. Medon, Huf. — Not rare in the same localities as the last. I 

 have not noticed an autumn brood. Cyaniris Vardhana. — Not at all rare in June, 

 and then occurs sparingly throughout the summer ; I have caught specimens as late 

 as October. It has the same habits as the rest of the genus. C. coelesfina, Koll. — 

 The commonest blue in the hills, and found everywhere throughout the summer. 



*Zizera Maha, Koll. — Common everywhere, from Murree to Abbottabad, and 

 as is so often the case the specimens taken in the rains are much darker than those 

 taken earlier in the year. *Z. GaiJca, T. — This and Z. Otis, F., occur not uncom- 

 monly throughout the district.
