The large one at bottom right is Papilio demodocus demodocus male. Apologies, I don't know the names of the others. I must admit I've never seen butterflies from Chad before.

Bottom left is a Mylothris species.
A genus close from Aporia and Delias.

Does that make me vintage too? I was born in 1959.

- the Pieridae (on the left, black and yellow) looks like a Belenois sp. - the Acraea (on the right, center) looks like Acrea oberthueri. Just a little problem : according Dominique Bernaud, who manages the best website on Acraea : www.acraea.com/there is only one species of Acrea flying in Tchad (a rather arid country) and it does not match with the timoinsect's picture ! Either the butterfly did not come from Tchad, either the Bernaud's website is incomplete. I presume that the butterflies are from Centrafrique Republique, as most of the african butterflies seen out of Africa. The two other butterflies (leaving aside the Papilionidae) are Nymphalidae, one being probably a Junonia ( Precis). But, it's too late in the night for me to make other researches !   |

The Mylothris is Mylothris chloris. The buckeye, might be a male Precis hadrope. He needs to spread the wings so that we can see the upperside. Precis hadrope is sited from Ghana, so it places it nearby.

Someone has gone to the trouble of providing collection data and identities (names) on the back of the staplepacks... Why are you asking us to identify them... or do you just need comfirmation ?? |
