PEP IPOPTEBA INPICA. 
(J. Bombay 1ST. H. S. 1895, 497). Mr. P. W. Mackinnon records it as ee common in 
Masuri, in the spring and summer months. The larva feeds on the leaves of 
Machilus odoratissima , 17. 0. Laurinese. It is bright green with a yellow collar on 
the fifth segment. The pupa is bright green, with the angles yellow. The larva 
pupates in June, and the butterfly emerges in the following April ” (J. Bombay 
N. H. S. 1898, 595). Mr. W. Doherty took it at “ Khati, Loharkhet, and in Lower 
Ramganga, 2,000 to 7,000 feet, in Kumaon. Gen. G. Ramsay obtained it in Nepal. 
Specimens labelled Nepal, and Barrackpur near Calcutta, are in the British Museum. 
Mr. H. J. Elwes writes, “Moller gives the habitat of this species, in Sikkim, as 
fro m 2,000 to 4,000 feet; occurring from April to October. I saw it in Khasia 
at 6,000 feet, flying on sunny days round the tops of trees with very rapid flight, 
and hard to catch ” (Tr. Ent. Soc. 1888, 434). Mr. G. 0. Dudgeon took it in 
Bhotan. Col. C. Swinhoe records it from the Khasia Hills (Tr. Ent. Soc. 
314). Mr. W. Rothschild records it from the Shan States (Nov. Zool. ii. 1893, 
445).
