Adam.
Which one ? "The genus Colias" published in 2012 or a more recent one ?

Juvisy Paris fair : good to be back !

After 2 years of cancellation due to Covid, Juvisy insect fair happened last week end ! I was there on Saturday morning, there were A LOT of people happy to see this great fair again. A big success despite less Russian & Japanese than on normal years. I didn't find any Delias to add to my collec...

Must be a tragic loss, but don't lose your passion for that !
You could start with a new genus for example, poorly studied, not expensive and interesting. Catasticta, tropical Lycaenidae, Riodiniidae...

Re: Embedding Youtube videos

If embeded on youtube or another popular hub, yes.

If it is a file on your computer, you should be able to attach it as you attach pictures. (but it has to be below 800 KiB).

Re: Embedding Youtube videos

Good idea, Thomas
I have coded it, you can now embed videos : just copy/paste the url of the video in your post and the video will be embeded. You don't even need to use the [media] tags.

One example, pasting the url :

Thank you Thomas for sharing your entomological adventures with us ! It is enjoying to read, interesting to learn about this part of Congo and it motivates us organizing some expeditions.

Re: old specimen Armandia lidderdaleii

Now you have to pay for everything that comes from outside the EU, even if it comes as gift that It supposes that doesn't have a commercial value. Ask your seller to put a €10 value. The Vat will be 2 euros and most of the time they don't bother claiming it. If no value is entered (gift), then they...

Yeap another achievement of Brexit... same here when I buy from a UK seller... + it is a big issue for UK Ornitho collectors now. For example, they can't bid on French Auction Ornithoptera anymore as they can't import them to the UK. (the CIC permit from the French authorities is valid within the EU...

For those who ignore it, Leroy has been banned for scamming other Insectnet members and refusing to refund them for many months. We gave him decades of opportunities to act correctly. I agree it is not a sensible suggestion to have him back here. This said, we miss his entomological posts and knowle...

Re: Rare Delias butterflies

I appreciate the brevity in the description and contrast. Especially so because I'm trying to make sense of one paper which has a description of a couple species we know well, but the the description goes on for pages with run-on sentences. Yours is concise and legible. Writing a paper in a foreign...
