I’ve been busy spreading microleps over the last few days, and here is a small selection from my summer collecting trips. Still have at least another 200 to go before catching up on my backlog. I am working on illustrating just how to spread these moths… quindi rimanete sintonizzati.
2009 was a great season. I explored tons of new land and collected at least 6 new species. Let’s hope for twice that many in the year to come.
Wow. The collection looks incredible. It is also my nightmare (I suck at spreading). I’m looking forward to the step-by-step!
Wow! What are those gorgeous things with the rosy hindwings and the apricot stripe on the (otherwise smoky gray) forewing (in upper right quadrant)? Congratulations on the new species. =) Very exciting.
There is nothing more pleasing to the eye than a well-curated collection!
