Re: Charaxes hadrianus

Daveuk,

I believe the locality of your charaxes hadrianus is wrong.
Mbale is a town in eastern Uganda, near the Kenya border and hadrianus does not fly there.
Most probably your specimen comes from Mbata, which is a famous collecting site in the south-west of the Central African Republic.

The photos of my boxes are too heavy to be attached here.
I will send them to you on your email.

Re: Papilio mechowi & Papilio gallienus

Thomas,
it would certainly be of great interest to the "African" entomologists/collectors if you could explain the differences which allow the 2 species to be separated. Thanks.
