Another great video from my colleague Michel Belloin in French Guiana.
It gives you an idea of how diverse the fauna is in Amazonia (when not destroyed).

Re: Agrias butterflies
Excellent books indeed.
And the more you will study Agrias, the more questions you will have ! It is a very interesting (and difficult) group.

Re: Bug Fair May 18 and 19 Los Angeles Natural History Museum
Indeed, you guys need to organize a big fair on the East coast too. Several fairs are succesful in Europe, I don't see why it would not be a success in the US too. You can coorganize it with shell or mineral collectors, if you fear to lack visitors in the first years. (that's what they do in Modena ...

Re: resource limit reached
I have the feeling we don't face that issue since I've upgraded the forum version (on May 5th).
Did anyone face this Resource Limit error last week ?

Re: resource limit reached
OK I have just upgraded succesfully the forum (that's why the forum has been unaccessible for the last 2 hours).
I am not sure at all it will fix the "Resource limit reached" issue, we will see.
It's anyway a good thing to update it for security reasons.

Re: resource limit reached
Inmotion says it comes from a technical issue in the code somewhere on InsectNet. Could be the phpbb forum, I will try to update it with the last version next week... it is not so easy to do and there is a risk of bugging the whole forum so I am always reluctant to do this kind of upgrades. Not sure...

Hi, yes we have often this issue.
It seems to affect the whole insectnet website, but we haven’t found the reason behind with Inmotion team…

Re: Agrias butterflies
As perfectly said by Manfred, females of ssp mauensis vary a lot, with some wonderful forms : see on the Agrias website : https://agrias-butterflies.com/agrias-p ... -mauensis/
There are less variations in female aurantiaca : https://agrias-butterflies.com/agrias-p ... urantiaca/

Yes you need some permits/custom declaration.
I will let our American members give you more details.

Re: Global travel collecting
I don't smoke, but I always have cigarettes on me when I am in New Guinea. Locals may ask you some cigarettes and it is rather rude to enter their land without giving some. The good practice is to have a guide who will ask before entering a "land" the cost and negotiate it. Usually a pack ...

Re: Global travel collecting
Same for me. I nearly had zero troubles during my collecting trips. Those I can remember : - we had to leave a village in the Baliem Valley (New Guinea) because we were "not welcome". But our guide understood fastly it was safer to leave the village. - my backpack with all butterflies and ...

Re: Global travel collecting
AFAIK no post have been deleted. The "Agrias butterflies" topic have been split in two : one about Agrias, one about Global travel collecting, as the latter topic deserved its own topic.
