2.56 L. cle Niceville— Butterflies of the Kanara District. [No. 2, 



superficial wrinkling, the carina?, and the teeth ; there is a round, blunt, 

 low production of the shoulder. The colour of the pupa is dirty whitish 

 with a pink shade on segments 4 to 14 ; the same but transparent- 

 looking on the rest ; the head-production, the points on segment 2, the 

 teeth of segments 5 to 7 (sometimes), and the extremity of the 

 cremaster are black — only the top and lower edge of the point of the 

 head however ; there is a black spot on the hinder edge of segment 2 

 dorsally, one just behind the shoulder, one lateral on segments 3 and 4 

 to J 2, and one dorsal on the front margin of segments 9 and 10. There 

 is always a semicircle of six darkish spots dorsally on segments 6 and 7. 

 The colour of the pupa when formed under a leaf is probably green, with 

 the markings as above. The underside or ventrum of the pupa is 

 always whitish. Length 21*25 mm., of which the process on the head is 

 275 mm., breadth at shoulders 5 mm., breadth at segment 7 from tip 

 to tip of teeth 7*5 mm. 



Habits. The habits of the larva are those of A. taprobana. The 

 pupa is formed on the underside of a leaf, on the trunk of the tree, or 

 on any flat surface, and is attached by the tail and by a body-band.

Recorded by Dr. Butler, I.e., p. 398, n. 12, from the Nilgiris, 

 Mysore, and Rangoon. The latter locality is certainly erroneous. The 

 species is confined to South India. 



167. Huphina nerissa, Fabricius. 

 Capparis sepiaria, Linn. (Capparidese). 

 Capparis horrida, Linn. f. (Caparidese) . 



H. nerissa is the parent form of this group of this genus occurring 

 in India, but typically it is not found in South India, being represented 

 there by H. pliryne, Fabricius, under which name it appears in the 

 second Kanara list, p. 574, n. 158.
