Kilimanjaro had a common origin, but they are now too wddely 

 separated geographically to be regarded as one species, seeing that 

 the differences of form and colouring between them are unques- 

 tionably constant.

A. vinicUa is the commoner form of the species, A. aeerata being 

 based upon a female specimen in which the subapical patch of the 

 primaries is united to the large tawny area ; every gradation from 

 one type to the other occurs in a long series : on the under surface 

 there is practically no difference, the number of spots varies, but 

 their position is constant.

 butterflies (owing to constant accessions) ; it really applies to 

 A, sganzini, not to A. ccecilia, which is a distinct species. In the
