Acraea acerata Hewitson
Acraea acerata Hewitson, 1874d: 381 (Ashanti). 1875 [1852-1876], 5: [27]; pi. [14], fig. 44 (River Prah, Nigeria).
This species is found from Liberia to East Africa, with a different subspecies in Abyssinia; a number of trivial color variants have been named. The specimen listed below is the first record from Liberia and at present marks the known western limit of the range, but it no doubt occurs in Sierra Leone.
Liberia: Harbel, 1 6 ,1 (Fox).
