NOTES ON THE BUTTERFLIES Colony and during most months of the year, though most abundantly in January. 36. ANARTIA JATROPHL (Linn). This is one of the commonest of all the butter- flies and in this respect ranks with Pieris monuste. It occurs all the year round in towns and villages, even in the streets and also in open sunny clearings. I have found the larvae on low-growing plants. There is a good deal of variation in the colours of this insect-some examples being much more brightly coloured than others. 37. ANARTIA FATIMA (Fabr). A common butterfly met with in sunny country lanes. Like the preceding insect it delights to bask in the sunshine. I have found it very variable in colour. In some specimens the bars on the wings are bone yellow, in others almost white. I have never seen the larva though I have often looked for it. The butterfly is exceedingly common and is found all the year round. 38. VICTORINA or AMPHIRINE STENELES (Linn). This is a large and imposing butterfly not at all uncommon in woodland paths. I have taken it in all the districts.
