and Chittar Pahar, Lumbahdun, 2000 feet, 28th November, 1885. 
With a series of each species before one, it is easy to distinguish 
this from the Turco-Persian 7’. fausta ; it differs in its superior size 
and more heavily marked primaries on the upperside (which, as 
Felder says, more nearly resembles the female of 7. fausta than the 
male), the much more dusky bases to the wings, blackish body, 
greyish costa to primaries and interno-basal area to secondaries, 
altogether duller and darker coloration below, the secondaries being 
flesh-tinted on basal two fifths and irrorated with grey atoms 
throughout, the conspicuous clay-coloured spots across the disk, and 
the white instead of pale sulphur colour of the ventral surface of the 
abdomen.

, between Tret and Barracoo, Murree and Rawal Pindee road, 
9th October; Attock Bridge, 8th November ; Campbellpore, 14th 
November, 1885. 
This was identified for Major Yerbury as “ 7’. etrida?” - 
71. TERACOLUS BIMBURA.

Q, Campbellpore, 27th October ; near Attock Bridge, Khairabad 
side, 8th November; ¢, Chittar Pahar, Lumbahdun, 2000 feet, 
28th November, 1885. 
This and the following are confounded together and labelled 
doubtfully as Teracolus etridu. Major Yerbury says of them :— 
“Common in June, July, October, and November. There seem 
to be Butterflies corresponding to the following species under this 
number, viz. :—purus, etrida, pernotatus, and bimbura ; but I should 
be doubtful whether, here at any rate, they do not all belong to 
T. etrida. I have taken these small orange-tips at Hassan Abdal ; 
(single specimen), on the road between Murree and Rawal Pindee 
near Barracoo (single specimen), near Attock Bridge, Khairabad side 
(a few), in the Chittar Pahar between Choi and Lumbahdun (very 
common), neighbourhood of Campbellpore (common).” 
Taking specimens in so many localities, it is not surprising that 
three species should be obtained ; as to their being all one, that isa 
question only to be decided by most careful breeding; they differ 
far more than our three British White Butterflies Ganoris brassicae, 
rape, and napi, yet there is not the slightest doubt of the distinctness 
of the latter.
