50 L. de Niceville — A list of Butterflies [No. 1, 



10. Mycalesis perseus, var. visala, Moore. 

 Common amongst grass and bushes. 

 ' 11. Mycalesis onalsara, Moore. 



Common, settles on the road in damp places. 



12. Yphthima philomela, Johanssen. 



Frequents grass and herbage, where I found it common. 



13. Acrcea vesta, Fabricius. 



Excessively common. It has a weak flight, continually settling with 

 closed wings on a flower or the end of a branch. 

 14j. CetJiosia liblis, Drury. 



Common all through the Terai and up to Chunabatti. The rich 

 red of its upper surface with a lovely violet reflection makes this species 

 one of the handsomest insects on the wing I know. 



15. Cirrhochroa aoris, Doubl. Hew. 



Not uncommon : it has a quick flight, and very much resembles an 

 Argynnis on the wing. 



16. Cirrhochroa mithila, Moore. 



Rarer than C aoris, and only seen in the Terai. 



17. Cynthia erota, Fabricius. 



Two males only taken just above the Terai. This species has a very 

 bold, strong flight. 



18. Symbrc?ithia hyppoclus, Cramer. 

 Two specimens taken near Chunabatti. 



19. Pyrameis indica, Herbst. 



Flying in numbers round the Chunabatti Dak Bungalow. 



20. Junonia lemonias, Linnaeus. 

 Common. 



21. Junonia laomedia, Linnseus. 

 Seen only in the Terai. 



22. Junonia iphita, Cramer. 

 Only one specimen taken. 



23. Ergolis ariadne, Linnaeus. 



Common everywhere in the lower hills and plains. 



24. Cyrestis thyodamas, Boisduval. 



One male only taken. It settled as is usual with this species with 

 its wings wide expanded and touching the ground all round at the edges, the 

 fore-wing being much pushed forward, leaving quite a large space between 

 it and the hind-wing. 



25. Hestina nama, Doubleday. 



Males only taken on the lower hills. On the wing it much resembles 

 Danais tytia.
