2023<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Colin Smith, who has died aged 87, travelled to Nepal aged 29 to teach mathematics, science and English and stayed on to become an authority on the country\u2019s butterflies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nepal is one of the best places in the world to see butterflies. Of the 17,500 or so known species, 660 are found in Nepal, of which 20 of are on the endangered list. Smith dedicated more than 50 years to their study, publishing numerous research papers and several books and becoming known by locals as \u201cPutali Baje\u201d (\u201cButterfly Grandpa\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Colin Philip Smith was born on November 24 1936 in Highgate, north London, to Ebenezer Smith and Rose, n\u00e9e Boosey. As a boy he often visited an uncle whose collection of butterflies and moths sparked an interest which he pursued during school holidays at Boy Scout summer camps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After taking a BSc in mathematics at Imperial College London, followed by an MSc at University College, he became a teacher, and in 1966 volunteered to serve with the United Mission to Nepal (UMN), a venture involving a number of Christian groups. \u201cI was told that alongside teaching, I needed to have a hobby, too,\u201d he recalled. \u201cI told them that I collected butterflies.\u201d The UMN suggested he should make a collection from Nepal to bring back home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>for more details: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/world\/colin-smith-maths-teacher-who-became-an-authority-on-the-butterflies-of-nepal-obituary\/ar-AA1jDaxS\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/world\/colin-smith-maths-teacher-who-became-an-authority-on-the-butterflies-of-nepal-obituary\/ar-AA1jDaxS\">Click Here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>\u0915\u094b\u0932\u093f\u0928 \u0938\u094d\u092e\u093f\u0925 \u091c\u0938\u0932\u093e\u0908 \u092a\u0941\u0924\u0932\u0940 \u092c\u093e\u091c\u0947 \u092d\u0928\u0947\u0930 \u092a\u0928\u093f \u091a\u093f\u0928\u093f\u0928\u094d\u091b \u0964 \u0909\u0928\u0915\u094b \u0968\u0966\u096e\u0966 \u0938\u093e\u0932 \u0915\u093e\u0924\u094d\u0924\u093f\u0915 \u0967\u096e \u0917\u0924\u0947 \u0930\u093e\u0924\u0940 \u092a\u0947\u091f \u0938\u092e\u094d\u092c\u0928\u094d\u0927\u093f \u0938\u092e\u0938\u094d\u092f\u093e (\u0917\u094d\u092f\u093e\u0938\u094d\u091f\u094d\u0930\u094b\u0907\u0928\u091f\u0947\u0938\u094d\u091f\u0928\u0932 \u0938\u094d\u091f\u094d\u0930\u094b\u092e \u091f\u094d\u092f\u0941\u092e\u0930) \u0915\u093e \u0915\u093e\u0930\u0923 \u096e\u096d \u092c\u0930\u094d\u0937\u0915\u094b \u0909\u092e\u0947\u0930\u092e\u093e \u0928\u093f\u0927\u0928 \u092d\u092f\u094b \u0964 <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/archives\/19434\" title=\"\u0936\u094d\u0930\u0926\u094d\u0927\u093e\u0938\u0941\u092e\u0928  \u092a\u0941\u0924\u0932\u0940 \u092c\u093e\u091c\u0947\">[\u0925\u092a \u0938\u092e\u093e\u091a\u093e\u0930&#8230;..\/Read More&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":19435,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[41],"tags":[101,65,102],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19434"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19434"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19434\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19436,"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19434\/revisions\/19436"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19435"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19434"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19434"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/nepalmediaonline.com\/Nmedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19434"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
