 323. Rhopalocampta benjaminii, Guerin. Plate W, Figs. 30«,

 Common at Mussoorie and in the Dun from March to September. 

 In Mussoorie the larva feeds on Meliosma pungens, Wall., and Sabia 

 campanulata, Wall., both Natural Order Sabiacece. Two types of larva 

 have been bred and are here figured. Further observations are neces- 

 sary to determine conclusively whether these very differently-marked 

 (the colours in both are the same) larvse really produce the same 

 species of butterfly, and if they do, if the coloration is sexual.
