March to October, especially in rains near Ranibagh. I have not yet come 

 across the true clytia form in Kumaun. 



171. Papilio polyctor, Boisduval. — Very common, 3,000 to 6,000 ft., June- 

 October. 



172. Papilio parts, Linn.—" Kali Valley, 2-3,000 ft." (Doherty). Not 

 uncommon on the eastern border and westwards as far as Bhim Tal at any 

 rate. 



173. * Papilio arcturus, Westivood. — Recorded from Kumaon, but I have 

 not yet come across it and it is evidently very rare within these limits. 



174. Papilio kashmirensis, Rothschild. — Fairly common in April in the 

 interior at 7,000 ft. The race sikhimica occurs on the eastern border 

 along with forms which seem to merge into P. ylycerion, Gray. The mark- 

 ings on the forewing are, however, those of P. kashmirensis. 



175. Papilio nomius, Esper. — Haldwani and Ranibagh, up to 2,000 ft. in 

 April and May. 



Apparently common in some years and rare in others. Any Kumaun 

 specimens that I have seen are nearer to P. nomius, as figured by Bingham 

 than to the allied races. 



176. Papilio eurypylus axion, Felder— Rare on eastern border at 2 to 

 5,000 ft., July and August. 



177. Papilio agamemnon, Linn.— Not common at Nalena at 4,000 ft. 

 in August and in Gori and Kali valleys clown to 2,500 ft. 



178. Papilio cloanthus, Westivood. — Common in April and from August to 

 October up to 7,000 ft. in river valleys. 



179. Papilio sarpedon, Linn.— Very common from May to October. 

 1-5,000 ft. 



180. Papilio xenocles, Doubleday. —Rare in the Kali valley on eastern 

 border in August. 



Genus.— PARNASSIUS. 



181. Parnassius jacquemontii, Boisduval.— Scarce in Garhwal at 12,000 ft. 



in August and September. 



182. Parnassius hardwickei, Gray.— Common at 8-11,000 ft., May and 

 August-October in all the inner ranges. This species is subject to very 

 marked seasonal variation. 



183. * Parnassius charttonius, Gray.— Rare at 15,000 ft., August, in inte- 

 rior of Garhwal near the snow-line. I have not received any specimens. 



PIERID^. 



184. Leptosia xiphia,P«6r.— Not uncommon up to 4,000 ft., April and May. 



185. Delias eucharis, Drury.— Common up to 6,000 ft., January, May and 

 October. 



186. Delias hierta, Hubner.— Not uncommon in the Kali Valley and in 

 the extreme east at 8,000 ft.
