Habitat. — S. Afghanistan ; Beluchistan. 



Distribution. — Major Howland Roberts (P. Z. S., 1880, 405) records it from the 

 neighbourhood of Kandahar, being "found commonly at the end of May and in 

 June in company with two species of Hipparchia (H, imrisatis and H. Thelephassa.") 

 Colonel C. Swinhoe obtained both sexes fairly common in the " Hanna Yalley at 

 6500 feet, Quetta, in October, also at Quetta in August, 1880, at Maach in the 

 Bolan Pass, July, and at Ispingil in June, 1882." Specimens were also obtained at 

 Quetta in June, 1885, by Capt. E. Y. Watson.

 the underside are visible. Underside as in the male, except that in some specimens 

 there is a lower minute black spot on the forewing, and on the hindwing an incipient
