Lepidoptera of Sikkim. 399 
318. Deudorix (Bidaspa) nissa. 
Thecla nissa, Koll., Hugel’s Kash., p. 412, t. iv., figs. 
3, 4 (1848). 
Deudorixz nissa, Hew., Ill. Lye., t. x., figs. 42, 48 (1863). 
Not rare up to about 3000 ft. from February to October. 
There are two very distinct-looking forms of this species, 
but a large series from the N.W. Himalaya, Sikkim, and 
Khasia, leave me no doubt that they cannot be separated. 
In the Khasias it is one of the commonest species. 
319. Deudorix epijarbas. 
Dipsas epijarbas, Moore, Cat. EK. I. C., i., p. 32 (1857). 
Deudorix epijarbas, Hew., Ul. Lyc., t. vii., figs. 16 —18 
(1863). 
Common up to 3 or 4000 ft. from April to December. 
320. Deudorix (Vadebra) petosiris. 
Deudorix petosiris, Hew., Ill. Lyc., p. 22, t. ix., figs. 
30, 31 (1863). 
Common in Sikkim at low elevations. 
321. Deudorix amyntor. 
Papilio amyntor, Herbst., Nat. Schmett., t. 800, figs. 
5, 6, 2 (1804). 
Deudorix amyntor, Hew., Ill. Lye., p. 17, t. viii., figs. 
19, 20, ¢ (1863). 
A very rare species in Sikkim. Méller had only pro- 
cured two specimens until 1887, but this year has had 
several from his native collectors. 
822. Deudorix (Virachola) perse. 
Deudorix perse, Hew., Ul. Lyc., p. 18, t. viil., figs. 24, 
25, 3; 26, 2 (1863). 
Moller says that this species occurs up to 9000 ft., but 
I think it must be but a straggler at this elevation ; 
and it is not common in Sikkim, though found almost 
all through the season.
