60 L. de l^iceviWeSecoiid List of Butterflies [No. 2, 



Eutlialia Jcesava, Moore. 

 ^Euthalia sananda, Moore. 

 Euthalia apiades, Menetries. 

 Note. The three last species appeared in my former list under the 

 genus Adolias. 



37. Moliana parysatiSy Westwood. 



Males common. Bohana is a new genus lately defined by Moore in 

 his " Lepidoptera of Ceylon." The species formerly appeared under the 

 genus Apatura. 



162. Apatura namouna^ Doubleday. 



Males not uncommon below 3,000 feet elevation. 



163. Apatura holina, Linnaeus. 



Very common, but all the examples taken were much worn. 



164. Sephisa cliandra^ Moore. 



One female only was taken by a Lepcha. The female of /S'. cJiandra 

 has never been described I believe. It differs from the male in the outer 

 margin of the forewing being far less emarginate, in the male it is deeply 

 incised between .the lower discoidal and third median nervules. The 

 bindwing is also broader and far less denticulate. On the upperside the 

 rich orange colour of the male has entirely disappeared except the spot in 

 the cell of the forewing, which however is much reduced in size. Beyond 

 the cell in that wing in the Sikkim sjDecimen above referred to, but hardly 

 observable in another Sikkim example and one from Nepal both in the 

 Museum collection, there are four longitudinal white streaks between the 

 nervules, decreasing rapidly from the anterior one placed between the 

 costal nervure and upper discoidal nervule and the posterior one betweea 

 the third and second median nervules. The discal white spots in the 

 male are smaller in the female, the anterior ones whitish, the posterior 

 bright steel-blue. There are also other similarly coloured spots and 

 streaks between the nervules just beyond the cell and below it. In the 

 hindwing the ground-colour is black with a marginal and submarginal 

 row of spots, the outer the smaller, and a discal series of streaks between 

 the nervules all steel-blue. In the Nepal specimen they are sullied with 

 tawny. On the underside the orange spot in the cell of the forewing is 

 much larger than above, and in the hindwing there is a round orange spot 

 on the middle of the costa and a similar • one in the cell, the submarginal 

 spots are yellowish and all the steel-blue markings of the upperside much 

 paler. 



In S. dichroa, the North-West Himalayan representative of S. chan- 

 dra, there is hardly any sexual differentiation. 



165. Dicliorragia nesimachus, Boisduval. 



One male at 2,000 feet elevation.
