occasionally a second minute pupil. The fulvous anal area on the hindwing 

 is more extensive and much lighter, usually confluent with the ring of the 

 ocellus. Below paler and all the markings wider. Expanse 2^ inches. 



13. Erebia phyllis gyala, sub-sp. n. (see plate). 28 specimens including one 

 pair in copula, late June to early August, 8,000 to 11,000 feet ; a few in 

 the Po Chu Valley and the bulk at Pe on the Tsang Po. Also a single 

 aberrant specimen a good deal higher up the river at Tsa near Rongchakar, 

 12,000 feet, August 28th. 



Differs from phyllis, Leech in the following particulars. The ocellus on 

 the forewing above is bordered with bright fulvous ; on the hindwing there 

 is a subanal ocellus set on a fulvous area, which is extended upwards 

 along the margin ; rarely this ocellus is absent and the fulvous area is 

 restricted. On the hindwing below there is an irregular sub-basal and 

 discal narrow brown line, often prominent and occasionally obsolete ; the 

 discal band is often bordered outwardly with dull yellow patches. There is 

 nearly always a subanal ocellus and the white spots above may be prominent 

 or obsolete. 



This race is very near inconstans. South (J., B. N. H. S,, xxii., 350) and 

 only differs in the presence of the subanal ocellus on the hindwing ; speci- 

 mens without the ocellus cannot be separated from inconstans. 



In the single female from Tsa the apical ocellus is inwardly bordered by 

 the fulvous area, but this area does not extend below the ocellus ; below the 

 bands on the hindwing are very prominent and in addition there is a sub-ter- 

 minal band ; the white spots are clearly defined but very minute, and the 

 anal ocellus is absent. 



14. Erebia tsirava, sp. n. (see plate). 10 males in the Po Chu Valley and 

 one at Pemako Chung on the Tsang Po, 7,500 to 9,000 feet, June 30th to 

 August 7th. 



Closely allied to, if not a race of, annada, M ; smaller, about the size of 

 orixa, M. Above it is very similar to typical annada, but the fulvous area 

 below the ocellus is rather more developed, while the ocellus itself is smaller 

 and more rounded. Below the looped band is absent from round the 

 ocellus on the forewing ; the hindwing bears a single small subanal ocellus, 

 while the dorsal and outer margins are broadly covered with closely set 

 white scales, leaving only a broad rectangulardark-brown costal area. 



15. Erebia annada polypJieinus, Oberth. A worn male at Tawang, 8,000 

 feet in October. 



16. Erebia narasingha, M. 7 cJ? Lower Tsang Po. 3,000 to 6,000 feet, June 

 4th to 19th. 



17. Aphantopus hyperanthus luti, sub-sp. n. (see plate). 54 specimens at 

 9,000 to 10,000 feet on the Tsang Po between Pemako Chung and Tu, 

 July 17th to August 13th. 



Above dark-brown with white cilia, bearing 3 ocelli on the forewing and 2 

 on the hindwing with narrow but well defined dull yellow irides, as in the 

 form ocellatus. In specimens from the Amur and Corea, the ocelli are pro- 

 minent in the female but tend to obsolescence in the male. Below rather 

 pale, brown obscurely dusted over with white, especially on the hindwing 

 where the veins are finely white ; the ocelli as on the upperside but with 

 broader brighter yellow irides ; on the hindwing there is an additional 

 ocellus in space 5, with often a small one adjoining it above, also a small 

 ocellus in space 1. The ocelli above are usually pupilled and below always 

 so. Very near ocellatus, difiering conspicuously in the paleness of the 

 colouring on the underside.
