Salut Olivier,

Je viens de t'envoyer par e-mail une copie de la description originale demandée.



Manfred

Milionia paradisea & Callhistia pericallis, the latter caught by MEEK in 1904

"Longueuil police search for man, 41, last seen on kayak in Bas-Saint-Laurent"

The well-known collector Paul Alexander Banko has been missing since last Thursday.
He had left for a kayak excursion.

I assume that this has no effect on the protection status. The species will certainly continue to be protected

P. ulysses penelope

P. ulysses denticulatus

P. ulysses physkon

P. orsippus rothschildianus

two females of ampelius

another sardanapalus with blue inner margin.
one can well understand that BATES gave this butterfly the name sardanapalus

"Yes, but nigerrimus is a subjective synonym of orsippus.
Adam."

Hello Adam,
in your subspecies list of P. ulysses of 5 February 2019 you still listed nigerrimus as a valid subspecies. I had ordered all my ulysses according to this list.

nigerrimus from Bougainville, also a representative of the new eastern species ?

Papilio godeffroyi, male, from Western Samoa

Papilio daedalus & Papilio pericles

I wonder if this was treated with UV light?

Adam.

Adam, I am quite sure that the butterfly was exposed to UV light. Parts of the forewings were covered so that the green colour remained.
