Distinguishable from C. Annada by the shorter and more convex apex of the 

 forewing, and on the underside of the hindwing by the more uniformly disposed 

 and duller strigae, the sinuous discal line being slender and uniform in width 

 throughout its course across the wing, and by the prominent well-formed subanal 

 ocelli. 



Our illustrations of this species on Plate 116, figs. 1, la, represent the male and 

 female specimens of G. Nada. 



Distribution. — This species "is very common in the "Western Himalayas, 

 throughout the outer ranges, at moderate elevations from May to September " 

 (Butt, of India, 247). Colonel A. M. Lang found it " very abundant in Middle and 

 Upper Kunawur, in June and July, frequenting hot, dry hill-sides " (MS. Notes). 

 "We possess specimens from Col. Lang, and both sexes obtained by Major H. B. 

 Hellard at Simla and Masuri, in June and October ; from Kulu by Mr. J. H. Hocking, 

 and from the Jumna "V^alley, 5000 to 6000 feet, in September, by Major J. "W, 

 Yerbury. Mr. W. Doherty obtained it in " Kumaon generally, at from 6000 to 

 9000 feet elevation" (J. A. S.Bengal, 1886, 119). Specimens from Naini Tal, 

 6500 feet, taken by Col. A. M. Lang in May, 1887, and from the Kulu Valley, 5000 

 feet, taken by Mr. de Nicdville, are in Mr. G. F. Hampson's Collection. In Mr. 

 J. H. Leech's Collection are examples taken at Sultanpur in Kulu by Mr. A. G-raham 

 Young ; others also from Sultanpur taken in September, by Mr. McArthur, from
