Hi Cosmin. Interesting collection of photos from around Europe & the world. I’m travelling to Morocco in mid March for butterflies (Anti Atlas). Would you be happy to share information about where you found A. ubaldus? I’ve only seen one on Grand Canaria – I have photos, rather poor though. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks. Matt

Hello again. Next to A. ubaldus I’ve just seen that you also have excellent photos of T. nogelii. That’s really nice to find, also interesting to see you found it fresh in the middle of June, later than I would have expected. I understand the location will be sensitive but if you can share that information? All the best, Matt
