The various colore are laid off at definite intervals along the axis of abscissae,and the ordinates represent the number of species which exhibit the variouscolors. Fig. 07. Hepresents the color-variations of the inner rufous area of tlii^ foreand hind wings in the Danaoid Heliconidae. The full line re))resentsthe variations of the fore wing. The dotted line those of the hindwing. The closeness of these two lines shows the intimate relationsbetween the color-variations of the inner rufous areas upon foreand hind wing. See p. 218. Fig. 08. Ihe full line represents color-variations of inner yellow spot of forewings in Danaoid Heliconidae. The dotted line represents same formiddle yellow. It is apparent that the inner yellow is morevariable than the -outer yellow. and also that the variations ofboth are quite similar
