A LIST OF BUTTERFLIES COLLECTED 
70. — Precis sesamus, Trim. North and South Kikuyu, Ukam- 
bani, above 4000 ft. The wet form is generally preva- 
lent, except from June to September, but both may be 
seen flying together not unfrequently. 
71. — Precis antilope, Feisth. Coast hills, Taita, Taveta. The 
dry form seems more prevalent than the wet form. 
72. — Precis aurorina, Butl. Taita, North and South Kikuyu. 
Fairly common. 
78. — Precis archesia, Cram. Common in North Kikuyu. The 
dry form is very rare. 
74. — Precis limnoria, Klug. Rare in the coast district, but com- 
mon in Taita and Taveta. It also occurs in Ukambani. 
This form is probably conspecific with the preceding. 
75. — Precis elgiva, Hew. Coast district, Taita, Taveta, North 
and South Kikuyu. Common. 
76. — Precis natalica, Felder. Common and widely distributed. 
77. — Precis stygia, Auriv. I have only met with this at Kijabe. 
78. — Catacroptera cloanthe, Cram. Widely distributed. 
79. — Salamis nebulosa, Trim. Coast district, Taita, Taveta. 
Common. 
80. — Salamis parhassus, Drury. Widely distributed. 
Common. 
81. — Salamis cacta, Fabr. Coast hills, Taita. This species 
is by no means common in E. Africa. 
82. — Hypolimnas misippus, Linn. Ubiquitous and abundant. 
Breeding experiments indicate that the type form and the 
inaria form bear a Mendelian relationship, the type form 
being dominant. The two forms are equally common. 
88. — Euralia deceptor, Trim. This species is often quite com- 
mon in the coast district. I have not met with it 
elsewhere. 
84. — Euralia dubius, Pal. de Beauv. The form wahlbergi, 
Wallengr., is not uncommon in the coast district, and is 
often found in Taita, Taveta, and Ukambani. The form 
mima, Trim., is also found in Taita and Ukambani ; but 
I have never seen it in the coast district, where its model 
(Amauris albimaculata) is absent. The two forms, 
though very different in appearance, have been proved 
by breeding to belong to one species.
