Thank you Adam.
And some conclusions can be useful to understand the diversity of several butterflies families.

To and fro in the archipelago: Repeated inter-island dispersal and New Guinea’s orogeny affect diversification of Delias
The City College of New York, led by David Lohman, has just published a major research project on the Delias genus, in which I participated. I recommend that you all read it, as it's a very thorough study with many conclusions, not only in taxonomic terms, but also in terms of evolution, biogeograph...

Re: Agrias butterflies
Long time I didn't post anything here. A rare Agrias phalcidon fournierae form rebillardi . Even rarer than the typical rebillardi form, this is a bicolor form with purple below the red patch. There are few other bicolor rebillardi specimens known. The purple effect is due to a red suffusion mixed i...

Re: Where to buy: Bioquip folding net "National Park Special"
As long as entomological authorities remain "silent" on that topic, the future of our hobby is indeed at risk. Museum authorities of the world should launch a "give kids a net" campaign. + they need to defend the insect trade as Wang, Pierce, Lohman & al did in July 2023 : &q...

Re: IMPORTANT NEWS : Papilio lampsacus is not extinct !
No because there are still some good forests on some mountains.
This said, that's why it is important to have the locality known.

IMPORTANT NEWS : Papilio lampsacus is not extinct !
There was much debate in our community about the status of Papilio lampsacus , which had not been seen and/or caught for many years on Java. Some of its localities have been totally destroyed by urbanisation and logging. Many thought that this once common species had disappeared. Some thought that t...

Ebay's fees have grown so much that many sellers are going to Etsy. Etsy has a complaint protocol, any problems should go through Etsy. Beyond that, Etsy is usually paid by credit card, so one can dispute the charges. When a new member shows up here just to complain I have a bit of suspicion. And, ...

Re: Thai Sunray Canna
Lantana is indeed very attractive to butterflies in Asia and New Guinea, that's why I planted some in my French garden.
But in my garden, it seems to have no effect at all on the butterflies I have in the area (Vanessa atalanta, Aglais io, Pieris rapae...).

Re: Thai Sunray Canna
I have a small lantana which doesn't attract any butterflies BTW... maybe Breton butterflies doesn't like it.
To me, it smells very good, a bit like citrus indeed.

I saw that announcement too.
With this kind of month pay, they should better hire locals... even if the mission itself can be interesting.
