Here is a curious case. Many entomologists deprecate the 

 naming of aberrant forms. Here we find a name given to a single 

 specimen, an aberration, which is subsequently duplicated from 

 the same locality. This gives color to my claim that aberrant 

 forms are the initial departures from type, which are the precur- 

 sors of new varieties, races, etc.
