I thagenes hiseri Beebe In the late afternoon, a small flock was working its way down a mountain slope to some sheltered roosting place at a lower elevation. An unseasonable snowstorm, falling on the tumbled uplands of northern Yunnan, had half covered the Chinese primroses which were blossoming in dense clusters.
