 c? , between Abbottabad and Kala Paui, 25th September, 1885. 



"Very common in August and September. Found all along the 

 hill as far as Tbundiani, and as low as Tret and Bugnoter ; probably 

 not above 5000 feet."— J'. W. T. 



8. Callerebia annada. 



Erehia annada, Moore, Cat. Lep. E.I. Co. Mus. i. p. 226. n. 475 

 (1857). 



d ? , between Abbottabad and Kala Pani, 25th September, 1885. 



" Not uncommon about Kala Pani ; here its habits appeared 

 different from those of Callerebia in general, as it was flying about 

 over stones and low bushes, not affecting the shade ; near Tret (8th 

 October), however, it affected the shade much like C. nirmala and 

 C. dalishar—J. W. Y. 



It is an interesting fact that Major Yerbury sends the above 

 species under the name of " C. hybrida ;" because his identifications 

 are, to a great extent, derived from Mr. de Nieeville. A short time 

 since I was severely taken to task for having described G. hybrida 

 as a species (not that I ever did so, for I distinctly stated my opinion 

 that it was a hybrid and an inconstant one) ; now if the gentleman 

 who attacked me obtained his identification from the same source, it 

 is clear that what he considered a very bad species is C. annada. 

 Who shall decide this point ? 



9. Callerebia nirmala. 



Erehia nirmala, Moore, P. Z. S. 1865, p. 501. n. 91.

" Callerebia dalsha and nirmala. These two species appear to 

 me to merge into one another. They were common at Murree in 

 shady places in August 1885." — J. U^. Y. 



Major Yerbury sends seven specimens, some of them rather worn, 

 but ail perfectly typical C. nirmala ; whether the female has been 

 identified for him as C. daksha or whether he actually possesses the 

 latter species, I cannot say ; but I am much inclined to accept tlie 

 first as the more probable explanation of his note. I should be glad 

 to obtain specimens of C. daksha for our collection, as we only have 

 one male labelled by Mr. Moore and received from him in 18/7; 

 from this one specimen it is impossible to decide how far the differ- 

 ential characters of the species can be relied upon ; if constant, they 

 are amply sufficient to distinguish it from G. nirmala.
