Forum member Nomihoudai (Claude) from Luxembourg visits me in Southern California to collect Philotes sonorensis. We caught some and we set up the females in small jars to harvest their eggs.

Nice video Clark. This exemplifies just what a wonderful website you have here, mostly because it brings us collectors together on a worldwide basis. Congratulations Claude on your successful trip, and opportunity to collect such special leps as the Sonoran Blue, and Sara Orangetip. This makes me yearn for springtime to arrive here in Tennessee, and possibly make a video of Falcate Orangetips(Anthocharis midea), and collecting Spring Luna's (Actias luna). Tom

I will be in SoCal. on the 3rd of may for three weeks so leave some for me. The 'sonars' will probably be done by then, but we have three species of checkerspots flying in May: Euphydrayas chalcedona, Chlosyne gabbi, and Thessalia leanira wrighti, so contact me when you get down here if you are interested to collect them. They all fly together (which is rather convenient). |
