188 Mr. H. H. Wce’s on new Nymphaline Butterfly. 
he captured one specimen at about 4000 ft. and the 
other at 7000 ft. The first was taken with a number of 
very pale specimens of the Pierine Aporia agathon, Gray, 
var. phryxe, Boisd., which it closely resembles. The second 
was flying about alone, its flight being distinctly Nympha- 
line and noticeably different, 7.¢. stronger and bolder, to 
the Aporias. 
With regard to the flight of P. nicevillei, de Nicéville 
wrote that it had a slow and sailing mode, and in general 
appearance much resembled A. agathon, var. caphusa, 
Moore, but does not state whether he found it in company 
with or only in the same district as the Aporias. 
The River Tons is a tributary of the Jumna, near its 
source. 
The type will be placed in the British Museum. 
Leech has also recorded P. mena, from W. China (Butt. 
China, 1, p. 144).
