    Preliminary Ecological Studies on the Lepidoptera from Khajjiar Lake Catchment, Himachal Pradesh, India

    Biodiversity Journal, 2014, 5 (1): 61–68 Preliminary ecological studies on the Lepidoptera from Khajjiar lake catchment, Himachal Pradesh, India Vikram Singh* & Harjeet Singh Banyal Department of Biosciences, Himachal Pradesh University, Shimla -171005 (HP), India *Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT A study on the Lepidoptera from Khajjiar lake of District Chamba of Himachal Pradesh re- vealed the presence of 49 species of butterflies belonging to 41 genera and 10 families. Anal- ysis of data revealed that family Nymphalidae and Satyridae (12 species each) dominated the Lepidoptera fauna of Khajjiar lake catchment, followed by Pieridae and Lycaenidae (6 species each), Hesperiidae (4 species), Papilionidae (3 species), Erycinidae and Danaidae (2 species each), and Acraeidae and Riodinidae (1 species each). Categorization of the species further revealed that of these 49 species, 5 were very common, 32 common, 5 uncommon and 7 were rare. Moreover, 3 species were listed in Indian Wildlife Protection Act (1972), Lethe scanda (Moore, 1857) and Lampides boeticus (Linnaeus, 1767) placed under scheduled II and Castalius rosimon (Fabricius, 1775) under scheduled IV of the Act.

    Revisiting the Timeless Folklore of Chamba

    MEJO, Vol. 5, Feb. 2021 Revisiting the Timeless Folklore of Chamba Dr. Kuldeep R. Sharma Asst. Professor, Department of English, Govt. Degree College Bhalei, Chamba, H.P. Abstract Folklore reflects human experiences by and large through folk songs and dances, art and architecture, legends, paintings, poetry, riddles and children’s songs etc. The permanence of the Folklore of any country, community or tribe can be analyzed in its universal themes of love, hate, revenge, morality, ethics, sacrifice and honesty with respect to conditioning of time and space. Folklore of District Chamba, Himachal Pradesh, is a phenomenal amalgamation of the vernaculars: Pangwali, Gaddi, Dogri, Pahari and Churahi that weave human experiences to form a phenomenally different fabric of culture and history in the country. The paper discusses the intensity of passionate love, cult of human sacrifice, gender, environmental concerns and other social and cultural dimensions in the selected legends and folk songs of Chamba accentuating its timelessness. The famous legends and perennial folksongs and ballads, particularly Kunju Chanchlo, Sunni Bhunku, Queen Sunaina, and Fulmo Ranjho would be the centre of deliberation. The paper on the one hand brings out the permanence and universality of Chambiali folklore in shaping and protecting the history and cultural identity of the natives and the need of its exploration and maintenance in globalised world on the other. Chamba is hemmed in by Jammu and Kashmir, including Ladakh, on the North West, by district Kangra of Himachal Pradesh on the southeast , and by Gurdaspur district of Punjab on the south. Because of its altitude, ranging from 2,000 to 21,000 feet above sea level and physical inaccessibility with difficult terrain, the territory remained largely insulated from the socio- political life of the country.

Gaul Department of Sociology/Anthropology, Hendrix College ABSTRACT In Chamba District of Himachal Pradesh, some local residents have been dedicated to environmental education, forest, watershed and wildlife protection, and the building of sustainable villages on the panchayat level for many years. These activists do not rely on any single source of inspiration or support but employ situation-specific strategies. A simultaneous history of forest protection and regeneration schemes on the part of Forest Department and various development agencies has met with a variety of responses by local people. A great deal of mobility on the part of environmental activists, in terms of not only physical travel but also strategic dexterity, gives new meaning to the term social movement.
