Re: Morpho cypris female form cyanites
Hello Anna,
Thank you so much for kindly posting photo's of some
of your holdings. The 3rd photo amongst your M. hecuba
pic's is absolutely a spectacular specimen !
The females of theseus yaritanus and amphitrion attali
are also especially nice. I can appreciate those brown
morpho's because its not easy finding reasonably "clean"
ones as most or all are wild caught.
I will have to show you some of mine. I'm "all over the board"
in my interest in these so, hope you don't mind.

Re: Morpho cypris female form cyanites
Gotta love da Morphos. Wish my female M. cyprus “cyanites” had her abdomen . I have not bought a Morpho in years, but sure love viewing the 2’x2’ drawer of them.

Re: Morpho cypris female form cyanites
Always a real crowd pleaser....
M. hecuba obidonius (Brazil)
Finally, one of five drawers that I have as my
holdings are modest.....
Still looking for a few select ones but, I'm pleased
with what I have managed thus far.
It's a tough market out there as many species are
still wing-captured or baited. There seems to be
a lot of "arm wrestling" over the lesser seen species !
Prices on some can be frightful for seldom occurring
or for especially "clean" A1 specimens.
