84 LEPIDOPTERA INDICA. 
Hasitat.—Nilgiri Hills, 8. India. 
Disrripution.—According to Mr. G. F. Hampson (MS. Notes”) this is 
“common on rocky hill sides. It has four broods in the year. Taken at Dun- 
sandle, Nilgiris, 6700 feet elevation from February to May, and at the Sholur Ghat, 
6500 feet, in March. Is not found below 5000 feet, and chiefly frequents places on 
the top of the plateau where sheet-rocks crop out on grass hill sides. It is also 
found on the Anaymalai Hills, 4300 feet, south of the Palghat Gap in February, 
flying with K. Yphthimoides.’ Captain HE. Y. Watson obtained specimens at 
Coonoor and Ootacamund in August.

Disrripotion.—‘ Obtained by Mr. Bourdillon at Colathoorpolay Patnas, 4000 
feet elevation, Travancore, in April.” Mr. Fergusson writing from Trevandrum 
says, ‘itis to be found on the hills here only on grass land near the tops of the hills. 
My specimens were taken in two localities—one a small patch of grass about an 
acre in extent at an elevation of 3500 feet, and the other on a grass hill about 3000
