is less rare east of the Tista river, where it occurs ia July and 

 September at 6,000 feet elevation. 



195. EuTBALiA (Dophla) sahadeva, Moore. 



Originally described from a male. I described its female for the 

 first time in the Proceedings of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, 1892, 

 p. 145. It is a very rare species in Sikhim, where it is found at 

 5,000 feet in August and September, but seems to be more common 

 to the east in Bhutan and in the Khasi Hills, and occurs in Western 

 China. Mr. Leech has described and figured the female as E. pyrrha. 



196. EoTHALiA (Dophla) durga, Moore. 



Of recent years owing to the great destruction of the forests for 

 the cultivation of tea, this species has become very scarce in Sikhim. 

 Otto Moller obtained it from June to August from 3,000 to 5,000 feet 

 elevation. It is still fairly common in Bhutan. It is the largest 

 known species in the subgenus. 



197. EuTHALiA (Dophla) duda, Staudinger. 



Probably the rarest species of the genus occurring in Sikhim. 

 I possess a single pair only, the female from Bhutan, the male from 

 the Khasi Hills. Dr. Staudinger described it from two males ; Mr. 

 Eiwes also possesses two males, and Mr. Dudgeon one male — all from 

 Sikhim. 



198. EuTHALiA FRANCIS, Gray. 



Common in Sikhim and Bhutan at 5,000 feet ; it is found also in 

 Nepal, the Naga, Khasi, Chin-Lushai, and Karen Hills. It probably 

 flies about midsummer in the heavy forest zone in Sikhim. 



199. EuTHALiA TELcniNiA, Mdnctrics. 



Occurs in the low valleys from 2,000 to 3,000 feet from April to 

 October, rather rarely. The female was described as a distinct species 

 under the name of '■'■ AdoUas''' aphidas by Hewitson. 



200. EuTHALiA APPiADES, Mcnetri^s. 



The commonest species of the genus occurring in Sikhim. It is 

 found throughout the year at low elevations. 



201. EuTHALiA JAHNU, Moore. 



Rare at low elevations; probably found throughout the warm 

 months. Its male was described by Mr. Moore as a distinct species 

 under the name of " AdoUas " sananda. 



202. EuTHALiA GARUDA, Moore. 



A common species in the low valleys and Terai, where it is to be 

 found all the year round. It is a variable species, the dry-season forms 

 being much lighter coloured than the wet, and the white spots on the 

 forewing in both sexes differing greatly in different specimens in 

 number and size. Colonel Swinhoe has recently described one of these
