 be abusive, but I had no option. Indian butterflies have 

 no names. Of course I have given them all names of my

 do, or else make himself acquainted with the opprobrious 

 epithets which naturalists have applied to them. Some of 

 these seem to amount to defamation of character. Cahop-

 neura ambaresa ! Horresco referens !
