More Uganda niceties....
Posted: Sun Jan 28, 2024 4:07 am
All of the following specimens were kindly "gifted
to me this past summer by a good friend and member
here on the forum. Finally, I have been able to delve
in to this rich supply of fantastic butterflies.
Each and every species seems so diffrent from the next
(or previous one) that I have to say that Uganda surely
offers ONE of the MOST diverse fauna in all of
Africa.
Here, I show just a few (with more to come); along
with data.
Pseudoneptis bugandensis ianthe
Rakai, Sango Bay -- June 2016
Aterica galene (male)
Rakai, Sango Bay -- June 2016
Junonia terea
Bushenyi, Kalinzu Forest -- June 2016
Belenois sudanensis
Bushenyi, Kayonza Forest -- June 2016
*Unidentified Species....
Moroto, Kokilokit -- July 2016
The identifications were given by my friend
and should be accurate however, the last
specimen was not shown to him so, any help
would be appreciated.
