15. Karanasa cadesia, Moore, 

 Occurs rarely in the Utzen and Tarben nallahs at 9,000 feet in August. 

 It differs from the preceding insect in having the band on the forewing 

 bright fulvous with even margins instead of pale yellowish with very irregu- 

 lar margins ; also the ocelli are very distinctly pupilled above. 

 16. Philakcta shandura, Marshall. 

 Rare in August on the Shandur and Baroghil Passes at 12,000 feet. 



17. Philaecta peesephone, Huebner. 

 Typical Persephone is common on bare hill sides at 4,000 to 6,000 feet 

 from August to October, The variety Hanifa, Hardman, is found in exactly 

 the same localities in May and June and is equally common, 

 18, AuLOCEEA swaha, Kollar. 

 Common at 6,000 to 10,000 feet from June to September below Chitral. 



19. AuLocEEA BEAHMiNus, Blanchard. 

 One specimen caught in the Tarben nallah at 8,000 feet on August 20th. 

 1902. 



20. AuLOCEBA SARASWATI, KoUar, 

 Found fairly commonly in company with A. sioaha. 



21. Maniola davendea, Moore. (?) 

 Males were common in June amongst pines at 6,000 feet. Females were 

 very common from 4,000 to 8,000 feet from June to September, Either 

 this butterfly is very variable or else we have several varieties. The ordinary 

 male has only one ocellus on the forewing, and the brand is short and wide 

 extending from the inner margin straight to the 2nd median vein. One 

 male caught at Laspur 9,600 feet has the brand very narrow commencing 

 at the base of the wing and running along the lower edge of the cell up to 

 the lower discoidal vein : it has a small ocellus on the forewing between the 

 usual ocellus and the apex and another small one below. Two males caught 

 on the Shandur Pass in August have the male brand thicker, extending 

 from the middle of the inner margin up to the lower discoidal vein and all 

 the veins are black. The females are also very variable, the discal line on 

 the hindwing above being sometimes very distinct and outwardly bordered 

 with white and sometimes altogether invisible. 



22. Maniola cheena, Moore. 



Common amongst pines at 6,000 — 8,000 feet from June to August. 



23. Choetobius neoza, Lang, 



Common at 6,000—13,000 feet from June to August. This was the 

 commonest butterfly on the shores of the Shandur Lake, but differed from 

 specimens caught elsewhere in having jellow patches on the underside of 

 the hindwing. The latter may be a new species. 



24, Callekebia niemala, Moore. 



Locally common in the side nallahs below Chitral at 6,1 >00— 9,000 feet from 

 June to August. One curious variety we caught has been figured, in 

 the Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society, Vol. XIV., by the late 

 Mr, De Niceville ; all the ocelli on the upperside were obsolete.
