Soma, it looks like you had a very good trip to Sikkim. Your ‘Fritillary’ is actually the Large Silverstripe (Argynnis childreni, also often given under the genus Childrena):

The first was found at a height of 12,000 ft in a place called Lungthu, 18 km from zuluk. The second one was seen at a height of 10,000 ft near Zuluk. Are these Common Woodbrown and Indian Fritillary ? Thanks Soma Jha -- Enjoy
