hindwino-, which latter is also heavily marked with black. The Kangra 

 Valley specimen referred to has the spots on the forewing nearly pure 

 white and the ground colour of the hind wing less obscured by the dark 

 streaks on uervures. My Sikhira specimen was taken at Darjeeiing in 

 June. (My only Sikhim specimen was taken at light on the road to 

 Tonglo at about 7,000 feet. It has the spots on forewing pale creamy- 

 yellowish and smaller than in Kashmir or Chinese specimens. The 

 markings of the hindwing are yellow and less in size and number.

Sikhim. I have not taken this. (This is a very distinct species 

 which occurs on Tonglo at 9-10,000 feet. I took one myself and got 

 another from Dewan Roy, a forest official, who collected for me wn'th 

 much success. I have a third from Knyvett's collection. They vary 

 in the tint and extent of the markings. H. J. E.) 

 1251> C. plagiata, Wlk. 



Sikhim and Bhutan, 4,500 up. Common at Tukvar in March, May, 

 July and October. It is variable in the extent of the white markings 

 on the forewing. 



1252. C equt'talis, Koll. 



Sikhim and Bhutan, 5,000 — 7,000 feet. Not so common as the 

 last, but it is attracted to light in June besides being found flying in 

 the dark misty forests below Pasheteng during the day. (Taken on 

 Sinchul near Darjeeiing at 7-8,000 feet where in some seasons it is- 

 fairly common. H. J. E.) 



1253. C. nyctemerata, Moore. 



Sikhim and Bhutan, 5,000 — 7,000 feet. Rarer than C. equitalis, 

 Koll. Occurs in April and May. It is smaller than C. eguitalis, Koll., 

 and has the abdomen yellow instead of crimson besides having more 

 and larger white patches near the base of the forewing.

 Genus Eusemia, Dalm. 

 15fi2 (part). E. mpalensis, Butl. 



Sikhim and Bhutan, 5,000—7,000 feet. Found flying by day 

 round the tops of flowering trees in May and August. (This was 

 described as E. mamlatrix^ Westw., in the Moths of India, but the 

 species just described by Westwood is the same as E. irenea, Boisd 

 the species afterwards described and signified by him under the same 

 name being that now referred to. G, F. H.)
