The test of breeding alone can decide whether mlamho is a mere 

 race or form of this species. In the shape and location of the dark spots 

 they agree very closely. In the coloration of the upper side of the wings 

 A. rogersi very nearly resembles A. egina, with which, however, it has 

 nothing to do. The resemblance to the latter is purely superficial.
