134 W. Dolierty — A List of Butterflies taken in Kumaon. [No. 2, 



. 183. Cyaniris dilectus, Moore. Khati, N. W. Kumaon, 7,000 feet, 

 Toli and Garjiaghat, East Kumaon, 2 — 3,000 feet scarce. My speci- 

 mens are very small. 



184. Cyaniris alboc^RULEus, Moore. Khati, N. W. Kumaon, 7,000 

 feet, rare. 



185. Cyaniris vardhana, Moore. Jagheswar, 7,500 feet, rare. 



186. Cyaniris marginata, de Niceville. Dhankuri, Khati, 7 — 

 10,000 feet. Female. Both wings chiefly black, forewing with the white 

 area larger and clearer than in the male, extending from the lower 

 median to the lower radial, and into the end of the ceil, where it is 

 indented from above. Extreme base of forewing from cell to hind 

 margin dull greenish-blue. Hind wing with a subapical white patch 

 over three spaces, a black spot between the upper median and the 

 radial, sometimes a streak across the end of the cell, a line of obscure 

 whitish submarginal lunules. Part of the disc between the white area 

 and the abdominal margin dull bluish. Below like the male. 



187. Cyaniris puspa, Horsf. Kumaon generally, up to 7,000 feet, 

 down to 2,000 feet. All these species except the first two, are easily 

 distinguished both by their colouring and marking and by the shape 

 of their prehensores. 



188. Pith E cops ZALMORA, Butler. Jhulaghat, Kali valley, 2,000 feet. 



189. Pathalia MALAYA, Horsf. (albidisca, Moore). Ranibagh, 

 Bagheswar, K;ipkot, Jhulaghat, Dharchula, 1,000 — 5,000 feet. All my 

 Kumaon specimens, as well as those taken by me in Burma and Cliitta- 

 gong, are tailed, while in Orissa, Ceylon, and the Eastern and Western 

 Ghats, their place seems to be taken by a tailless form. Of this last, 

 those from Ceylon and the Western Ghats are apparently Megisba 

 thwaitesii, but those from Orissa and the Eastern Ghats seem to me 

 identical with malaya except in the absence of the tail. The occurrence 

 likewise of the tailless form of Nacaduba ardates in those districts is 

 worthy of remark.
