We start with a stunning Glassy Tiger, (Tirumala limniace exoticus) followed by a common punch (Dodona durga) 3 other unidentified butterflies in Ladour. Would you like to help us identifying the missing species? Comment your thoughts (: Located in the Mussorie range of the Western Himalayas, Landour experiences a good deal of rainfall during the monsoon, giving it a beautiful view. Winter is a harsh cold, and summer has its own strong warmth to offer, so the best time to visit would be towards the end of summer and beginning of monsoon, since it gets quite pleasant on this hill station. With a variety of trees like Oak, Pine, Deodar, Cedar, Ash etc present in this town, they provide a serene atmosphere.
