3825. Pratapa Bhotea. 
Pratapa bhotea, Moore, J. A. 8. B., 1884, p. 22. 
An insect described under this name from Sikkim is 
in the Caleutta Museum, and also in Miller’s collection, 
but seems very rare. Moller includes P. deva in his list, 
but I have no specimen to identify, and suspect it is the 
above species. 
326. Ilerda epicles. 
Flerda epicles, Godt., Ene. Meth., p. 646 (1823). 
This is a very common species up to about 4000 ft. 
from April to December. Both sexes vary considerably, 
the males in the size of the red lunules on the hind wing, 
which are sometimes quite absent on the upper side; and 
in the colour of the fore wing, which in one form is deep 
purple, with a broad black border, whilst in others it is 
of a much duller purple, with a red blotch more or less 
distinct onthe disc. The females also vary in the size 
of the red patch on the fore wing, and in the extent of 
the red band on the hind wing. 
327. Ilerda androcles.
