Pratafa lila, Moore, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1883, p. 529, pl. xlix, fig. 9, male. 
HapsitaT: Silhet, Eastern Bengal. 
EXPANSE: @, 1'5 [actual measurement of figure 1°8]; 2, 1°62 inches. 
DESCRIPTION : ‘* Near to the South Indian P. [=C.] deva, Moore, UpPERSIDE, both wings 
with the blue of a purple tint, less metallic in Iustre, and confined to a smaller space on the 
lower basal area, thus giving a broader black outer border. UNDERSIDE, both wings of a 
darker tint, with much more prominent transverse black sinuous line, and brownish marginal 
fascie. Hendwing with the anal spots also larger and broader-bordered with red. FEMALE. 
UPPERSIDE, doth qwings also with a broader brown border.” (Afoore, 1. c.) 
In the Indian Museum, Calcutta, is a male specimen from Upper Tenasscrim named 
by Mr. Moore ‘* Zajuria [sic] /é/a.” It is very small, measuring only 1°45 inches in expanse, 
while the figure given by Mr. Moore measures 1°8 inches. It does not agree at all with Mr. 
Moore’s description of this species, and isin fact a C. deva. I very much doubt C. Zila being 
a distinct species, all the characters given as distinctive appearing to be very trivial.

Description: “MALE. UPPERSIDE, Jofh wings brilliant ultramarine blue. Forewing | 
with more than the outer half dark brown; the tuft of hair at the meeting of the wings 
black. Aindwing with the costal and outer margins brown. UNDERSIDE, doth wings grey, 
paler towards the outer margins, crossed beyond the middle by a linear band of brown 
(apart where the wings meet), and by an indistinct submarginal band of rufous-brown, 
the outer margin rufous. Aindwing with the two black spots near the anal angle crowned 
with orange.” : 
‘Nearly allied to Z [= TZajuria] longinus, Fabricius, but easily distinguished from it by 
having the tuft of hair where the wings meet.” (Hezifson, 1, c.) FEMALE. UPPERSIDE, doth 
wings black. Forewing with the lower basal and discal areas pale blue, rather darker 
towards tke base of the wing. Aindwing with the disc more or less pale blue, some indistinct 
black submarginal spots, anal lobe bright ochreous as in the male. Cilia whitish throughout. 
UNDERSIDE, doth wings as in the male. 
This very beautiful species appears to be confined to the Himalayas. Mr. R. Ellis took 
it in Chumba, Mr. A. Grahame Young has sent many specimens from Kula, I have taken 
it sparingly on Tarwa Devi, a mountain opposite Simla, about 6,000 feet elevation, Mr. P, W. 
Mackinnon has sent me males from Masuri taken in May, I possess a male specimen taken in 
Naini Tal in August, and Colonel A. M. Lang took a very large and dark female there at 6,500 
feet elevation on 30th August, and lastly Mr. A. V. Knyvett has obtained three male specimens 
near Darjiling. These are all the certain records I possess of its capture. The female is 
much rarer than the male.
