Olivier,
Remember that in France Custom officers are always right ! Therefore you must be very "diplomatic" ... I suggest you send them the official text saying that Cites permit is only required for protected specimens !

Thank you Olivier !
To Jonathan : If I do your research with Cymothoe filitype:pdf which is my favorite genus, I only find a few pdf related to them ! I obviously do some research on the web, but it is far from listing everything that has been published. Then there is the problem of validity of what is found on the web, especially on private blogs, pages and so on that will disapear from the web when the guy is dead or has forgotten to pay for the host server fees ? I am annoyed when a publication on the web is altered so often as it is impossible to refer to it in case of synonymy at one moment ?
Note : sorry, but my english is not good enough to explain exactly what I mean on the subject ...
A+, Michel

Jonathan !
I do not see why it should be easier to read everything on the web rather than on "paper", except for the cost ! How will you know there is not a website written in chinese, russian, or so on the subject you are interested in ...

I agree : this post has nothing to do here in the forum, but I also think that it has nothing to do in the classifieds !

The man who sent me the picture of Graphium levassori said that it is probably Papilio wilsoni which is the rarest of all !

True nomad, homerus is also very rare in collection, despite its protection that most of the time increase the number of specimens on the market. But I think levassori is even rarer in collection. Some members here have homerus in their collection, never heard of someone with a levassori. If someone have one, I would love to see the picture. Some French collectors tried to find levassori in its habitat at the good period... in vain. Hi Olivier, Here is a pair of Graphium levassori ! Attachments:

Yes Adam, you are correct, this is an emendation of Papilio zenobia !

This is either Cymothoe coccinata coccinata male or Cymothoe mabillei male, but these 2 are almost identical, the later one more orange than red ! Cymothoe arcuata written on the picture is wrong as it does not occur in Ghana ...

I do not think it is annoying at all, but would be better to identify them in the title !
Searching on ebay can take hours, while it takes minutes on Olivier system ...
Those interested can include this website in their favorites, and may be Olivier will not need to advertise so often ...
A+, Michel
