A very common insect throughout Tropical America. Individuals are subject to 
some variation, certain specimens being much darker in colour than others, while some 
have the wavy lines on the underside of the secondaries bright red instead of brown. 
This species is a very distinct one, having no very close allies. It is found in all the 
warmer parts of Guatemala up to an elevation of about 3000 feet, and flies in the more 
open country rather than the forests.

Like the last, this is a very common species, ranging from Mexico to Panama, where 
its place is taken by an allied form (A. amalthea), which continues southwards as far 
as Southern Brazil. In Guatemala it is found from the sea-level to an elevation of 
about 3000 feet, frequenting the more open spots and clearings.

This genus, as now restricted, contains about sixty species, the valley of the Amazons 
and the eastern spurs of the Andes being the abode of the greater number. In Central 
America, however, it is well represented by fourteen species, four of which occur in 
Mexico, only one passing across our northern frontier into the United States. The 
rest of our species are found in Costa Rica and the State of Panama.
