It is interesting to observe, in the above Table, how large 

 a proportion of the whole ntimber of Rliopalocerous forms 

 inhabiting Southern Africa appear to be peculiar to the 

 region, 95 species, or nearly one-half, not being recorded to 

 occur in any other part of the world, or even to extend into 

 the tropical countries of Africa.
