distinctly bifid. The pupa is of quite a different type from Terms and Gatopsilia. 
It is closely attached to a leaf, and the wing-cases do not form a keel, but there is 
an acute dorsal prominence just behind the head, and a transverse dorsal ridge in the 
middle connecting two angular lateral processes ; the head ends in a short snout; 
the colour is variable, and probably depends on situation ” (J. Bombay N. H. S. 
1890, 358). “ The butterfly is very common in the forests and on the slope and 
crest of the Ghats throughout the dry season. Wherever a patch of moist sand 
presents itself in the bed of a mountain stream, they form a quivering white cloud, 
tinged with yellow by specimens of Appias Hippoides , and speckled with green by 
Papilio Sarpedon. We have not seen the butterfly much about Karwar, and conclude 
that it is little on the wing during the rainy season. In the pupa, the band is short, 
so that the vertical side is applied close to the surface to which the pupa is attached, 
the thorax is stout and not compressed or keeled, segment JSTo. 7 bears on the back a 
sharp transverse ridge ending in pointed lateral processes. Gapparis horrida seems 
to be the favourite food of this species ; it is also commonly found on Gratseva 
religiosa. Eggs laid singly ” (id. l.c. 1896, 573). Mr. G. E. Hampson found it 
ee rare in the Nilgiris, from 1,000 to 3,000 feet elevation ” (J. As. Soc. Beng. 1888, 
362). In Gey Ion Mr. F. M. Mackwood obtained it in the “low country,, so far found 
only in the KurUnegalla country. Capt. Wade took it at Hambantotte in June and 
July, and Mr. Pole at Puttalam” (Lep. Ceyl. i. 131).
