The butterflies were observed during daytime hours, collections were also made using a sweep net, and the collected specimens were dry preserved following Arora (1990) and deposited in the museum of the Department. Identification of species was done using available literature (Kunte, 2000; Antram, 2002; Palot et al., 2003; Wynter-Blyth, 1957; Gunathilagaraj et al., 1998). Species classification and scientific names are as per Gunathilagaraj et al., 1998; Varshney, 1994, 1997. In the study, 810 butterflies belonging to five families were recorded. Among these families, the Nymphalidae were dominant with 12 species, followed by Pieridae (11), Lycaenidae (10), Papilionidae (3) and Danaidae (3).
