Undet. Morpho females

Post by Trehopr1 »

I snapped off a couple of pics of some very
large and unidentified Morpho females which
I recently saw in a collection being parted out.
There were no identifying names but, both had
good data.

Both species were near 7 in. and very
impressive in color and size. No wonder these
fetch so much more over their male counterparts !

Maybe if you include the data someone here can tell us what they are.

Data would help narrow it down to subspecies, but the top one is M. telemachus and the bottom one is M cisseis.
