Re: Morpho achilles
I'm surprised that the abdomens are still attached. Were they removed and re-attached, or is there now a method of preventing greasing that I don't know about?
Re: Morpho achilles
They were attached when I got them as papered. I took a risk & set them with abdomens on.58chevy wrote: Sun Mar 26, 2023 12:35 am I'm surprised that the abdomens are still attached. Were they removed and re-attached, or is there now a method of preventing greasing that I don't know about?
Have some closely related species where the abdomens were removed. These are subspecies of Morpho deidamia. M d electra from Bolivia & M d deidamia from French Guyana
