Telchinia serena : ウィキペディア英語版
Acraea serena

The Dancing Acraea (''Acraea serena'') is a butterfly of the Nymphalidae family. It is found in South Africa, including the area near the Waterberg Biosphere. But it is found also in the whole Africa south of the Sahara. It is the most common of the ''Acraea'', from Dakar to Fort-Dauphin, from Yemen to The Cap.
This is the type species of the old genus ''Telchinia'', which may warrant re-separation from ''Acraea''. Formerly, ''A. serena'' was often misidentified as ''Acraea eponina'' (Small Orange Acraea) or ''Acraea terpsicore'' (Tawny Coaster).
It is very likely that the butterfly's black-spotted orange markings are a sign of unpalatability and it may well form part of a mimicry ring with ''Erikssonia edgei''.
Note on the taxonomy of ''Acraea manjaca'' Boisduval
''Acraea manjaca'' from Madagascar now considered to be conspecific with ''Acraea serena'' has a complex taxonomic history which illustrates the problems in interpreting the genus as a whole.Here is an account of how ''Acraea manjaca''
was placed by different authors.
Boisduval notes the proximity with ''eponina'' Cramer in his original description of 1833.Doubleday (1848) treats ''manjaca'' as a good species (1848) but Guerin (1849) places ''manjaca'' in synonymy with ''serena'' Fabricius, which was confirmed by Trimen (1862) and Mabille (1886). Aurivillius (1898) considers that ''manjaca'' Boisduval is a variety of Fabricius' ''serena'' which had, in turn, been put in synonymy with ''terpsicore'' Linnaeus by Butler (1894), and which then was thought to be ''eponina'' Cramer (Le Doux, 1928, Carcasson, 1961).Eltringham (1912, 1916) considers ''manjaca'' Boisduval to be a synonym of ''rougeti'' Guérin (''Acraea serena''). Le Doux (1928) reinstated ''manjaca'' as good subspecies of ''eponina''. Van Son (1963) considers ''manjaca'' to be a simple form.
