I was wondering if anyone knew if Soursop(Annona muricata) was a host for the Eurytides/Protographium marcellus? Ive seen some posts on different gardening boards about but just wanted to know if anyone on here has raised them on it?
Thanks!

Re: Eurytides/Protographium marcellus
Eurytides marcellus and all the other North or South American Leptocircini are not related at all closely to Protographium leosthenes from Australia. Keith Brown's idea is not borne out by DNA analysis.
The monotypic genus Protographium is the sister to Graphium, whereas all the American species are on a separate branch of the tribe, and it is best to use Eurytides for them.

PS. I recommend people turn off 'autocorrect' so species names are not automatically changed to a first capital letter.
