Papilio Anactus - Distribution

Distribution

Papilio anactus is endemic to Australia, It originally came from New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland, but the growing of Citrus orchards has caused the species to spread to South Australia in the late 1920s. Papilio anactus is not present on Kangaroo Island or Western Australia where there are currently insufficient citrus trees.

Its occurrence on New Caledonia is due to either an introduction, or as vagrants.

Famous quotes containing the word distribution:

    The question for the country now is how to secure a more equal distribution of property among the people. There can be no republican institutions with vast masses of property permanently in a few hands, and large masses of voters without property.... Let no man get by inheritance, or by will, more than will produce at four per cent interest an income ... of fifteen thousand dollars] per year, or an estate of five hundred thousand dollars.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    There is the illusion of time, which is very deep; who has disposed of it? Mor come to the conviction that what seems the succession of thought is only the distribution of wholes into causal series.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Classical and romantic: private language of a family quarrel, a dead dispute over the distribution of emphasis between man and nature.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
