94 L. de Niceville — List of Butterflies taken in SiJchim. [Nos. 2 — 4, 



flying off into the jungle when disturbed, and resting on a leaf with closed 

 wings. 



Subfamily Ntmphalin^. 



210. CupJia erymanthis, Drury. 



Mr. Otto Moller saw a single specimen of this and the following spe- 

 cies in the bed of a stream below Pashok, but was unable to capture them. 



lill. Atella sinha, KoUar. 



212. Fyrameis cardui, Linnseus. 



A single specimen seen. It is by no means a common species in Sik- 

 kim, owing probably to the scarcity of its food-plant, the thistle. 



213. Junonia orithya, Linnseus. 

 Common at about 4,000 feet elevation. 



214. Junonia almana, Linnseus. 



The Junonia laomedia of my former lists should now stand as J. 

 atliteSf Linnseus, the latter having lately been found to be the prior name 

 given to this species. 



215. Herona marathus, Doubleday, Hewitson. 

 A single male was taken by the Lepchas. 



Euripus cinnamomeus, Wood-Mason. Up to date Mr. Moller and I 

 have seen about thirty specimens of this species, all of which Sive females. 

 Can it be that the female of JE. Jialitherses is dimorphic ? Certainly in 

 Sikkim where the males of the latter species are common, U. cinnamomeus 

 is more frequently met with than the acknowledged female oiJE. Jialitherses 

 (U. isa). 



Atliyma zeroca^ Moore. 



Female. Differs from female A. selenopJiora, Kollar, in having all 

 the white bands and spots on the upperside sordid instead of pure white, 

 the forewing has the apex more rounded, and as predicted in my last 

 Sikkim paper, the streak in the cell is undivided. The markings of the 

 underside are very much as in the male. Expanse 2"8 inches. 



Three specimens were obtained by the Lepchas. 



216. Euthalia telchinia, Menetries. 



A single female ( = aphidas, Hewitson) was taken by the Lepchas, 

 and is the first specimen of this sex I have seen. 



217. JSuthaliaphemius, Douhledsij, Hewitson. 

 Several females ( = sancara, Moore) were taken. 



Family LEMONIID^E. 

 Subfamily Nemeobiin^, 



218. Dodona eugenes, Bates. 



219. Dodona dipoea, Hewitson. 



Both sexes of this and the preceding species common on the Birch
