Hills. We also possess it from Nepal, taken by Gen. G. Ramsay, and others from 
Sikkim. Mr. H. J. Elwes records “ a dozen male specimens taken in Sikkim in May, 
June, and July, some of them near Mongpo and some on the top of Sinchul. Mr. 
Moiler says its range is from 3,000 to 7,000 feet elevation, but as far as I can judge, 
it is found at higher elevations than Glycerion [Sikkima], and is more of a temperate 
than a tropical species” (Tr. Ent. Soc. 1888,432). Mr. L. de Niceville says it 
“ occurs in Sikkim from 3,000 to 7,000 feet, from May to July ” (Sikkim Gaz. 1894, 
174). Captain E. Y. Watson records “ a single not quite typical male of Pajohus 
was obtained in the N. Clnn Hills at 7,000 feet elevation, in April. Several other 
specimens were noticed at the same time flying round the tops of trees in copses ” 
(J. Bombay N. H. Soc. 1897, 672).

Imago. —Male. Upperside white. Forewing with similar black bands and black- 
edged anterior veins as in P. Glycerion , the narrow submarginal band being 
straighter in its course. Hindwing with the basal bands very slender and obsolete 
posteriorly, the three outer interrupted bands very slender, the inner or cliscal being 
either obsolete or slightly apparent only in the radial interspace, the submarginal 
also being more or less obsolescent in the subcostal interspace; the black anal patch 
narrower, its yellow spots not definitely separated, the lower anal white spot 
quadrate in shape and its indented black point slightly downwardly-oblique. 
Underside. Foreiving with less prominent markings, as on upperside. Ilindwing 
with the ground-colour olivescent-yellow, darker than in Glycerion and Oashmirensis, 
the basal, and catenulated discal band, the outer bands, and the anal markings, 
similar to those in Cashmirensis. 
Female. Upperside and underside similar to the male; the anal yellow spots 
on the hindwing being brighter yellow. 
Expanse, 6 2^ to 3, $ 3 inches. 
Habitat. —Nepal; Sikkim ; Assam. 
Distribution. —Mr. H. J. Elwes records this species as not very abundant in 
Sikkim, but occurs at about 2,000 to 4,000 feet elevation in May and June. I saw 
it on several occasions in the valleys below Mongpo in those months, but found it 
difficult to take, on account of its very quick flight” (Tr. Ent. Soc. 1888, 432). Mr. 
L. de Niceville says it is te probably single brooded, and occurs in Sikkim, at low
