The female (which is a cripple) was sent to me, along with its 
eges, some time ago; it nearly resembles the female of P. japonica 
excepting that it is smaller. Some of the eggs were hatched about 
the beginning of May and, by my advice, were placed upon young 
hawthorn ; upon this and upon cak they have since lived, but their 
growth has, so far, been very slow; at the present time (June 5th) 
they are in their second moult and measure 11 millim, in length. 
Dorsal surface slate-grey, with a central series of seven spots com- 
mencing on the fourth segment, the fifth of these spots ochreous, 
the others red; the spots are connected by a slender longitudinal 
pale line and are bounded on each side by black spots; the subdorsal 
line is slender and whitish; the sides and ventral surface ash-grey ; 
a lateral series of testaceous tubercles crowned with radiating bristles 
and connected by a very slender blackish line; tubercles of the 
second and two last segments very prominent and terminating in 
very long bristles; legs testaceous ; head dark testaceous, the eyes 
bounded internally by two large fusiform black spots.

“Cocoons very common all along the hills from Murree to 
Thundiani, August and beginning of September. The males all came 
out early in September, the females later; the latter appear to 
remain on their cocoons, as several were taken thus late in September. 
Cocoon and chrysalis sent.”—J. W. ¥. 
The cocoon of Z. vishnou, which bears some resemblance to a 
quaint bearded face, is too well known to be worth redescribing 
here,
