Abstract

During an opportunistic field survey in the Balh Valley of the district Mandi in Himachal Pradesh Tajuria yajna yajna (Doherty, 1886) was documented for the first time. The species has never been reported from Himachal Pradesh and hence the present study extends the known distribution range of T. y. yajna in the North West Himalayas. The study also reports a new larval host plant and the first detailed description of the life history of T. y. yajna from India.
