THE BUTTERFLIES OF CHITRAL. 67B 



inconspicuous. One specimen, probably a female, has only the base and 

 the coata of the forewing blue, and the cilia, at the end of the veins, are 

 prominently white spotted. 



66. Lyc^na sp. 



A butterfly like the last was very common on the shores of the Shandur 

 Lake in August. It is much smaller, and below there is no orange at all 

 at the anal angle. The female is brown, tinged with blue at the base. The 

 above two may form one species distinct from L. Lcp,wn. 



67. Lyc/ENA sp. 



A few caught on the Baroghil Pass in July. Above, the male is exactly 

 like a dwarfed L. Persica ; below the forewing is dull grey with a spot 

 at the end of the cell and a discal series of five small spots, all bordered with 

 white ; the hindwing is very distinct ; it is slightly powdered with black and 

 green scales at the base and the remainder of the wing is a brownish green 

 lighter at the margin, with 10 big white irregular-shaped spots. The female 

 is brown above ; perhaps a new species. 



68. LvciENA METALLicA, Felder, 



Fairly common on the shores of the Shandur Lake in July and August. 



69. LYCiENA GALATEA, Blanchard. 



Fairly common in nallahs below Chitral at 6,000 — 8,000 feet from June 

 to August. 



70. Lyc^na samudea, Moore. (?) 

 . .Common above Chitral from Sanoghar 8,000 to Laspur 10,000 feet in July 

 and August. The male is blue above, of the same shade as L. Persica, with 

 the veins black towards the margin ; below the discal series consists of 

 six large triangular spots ; on the hindwing all the spots are very small, and 

 there is a complete marginal series of metallic green spots bordered inwardly, 

 with pale orange and black lunules. The female is dark brown, sprinkled 

 with blue scales at the base.

 72. Lyc.ena sp. 



A few obtained above the Shandur Pass in August. The male is very dark 

 blue with a spot at the end of the cell, and the female is brown. On the 

 forewing below there is a narrow streak at the end of the cell and a discal 

 series of six small spots. On the hindwing the spots are small and disposed 

 much the same as usual ; the marginal .ones are very faint, one or two near 

 the anal angle being metallic green crowned with orange and black. Pro- 

 bably an undescribed species,
