Other Non-Filipino species I breed / have breed #8

MEGACRANIA PHELAUS
Origin > Malaita (Solomon Islands)
I breed them on Pandanus species. Any species will do, they accept all of them I brought into the cage, long/thin - large/thick-Spiny or not spiny !
What can I say about that species, words are missing me to express how delightful they are, at each stages of developement it's a joy to look at them. Except for the L1 stage breeding of that species is easy, they eat a lot and it's better to secure many Pandanus sources !
Thanks Bruno for the eggs !










Other Non-Filipino species I breed / have breed #7

NECROSCIA ANNULIPES
Origin > Malaysia (Tapah Hills)
I breed them on Jasmine (Jasminum) having no Hypericum available arround me here. Beautiful species quite easy to breed, males very active however, they can easily escape an open cage as they fly very well with their deep pink wings > gorgeous !!!! Thanks Bruno for the eggs.
