I got an offer from Timo Liese, I think it was one or two years ago. I don't remember the price, but it was under 3000 Euro. He also offered a female of zalmoxis then. Probably I have a picture of a female, I will have a look when I come home.

Hello,
I saw quite a few females, and even a gynandromorph at A.B.R.I. in Nairobi KENYA with my friend Steve Collins !

there is also one in the last D'abrera.
Michel, I think there is more than 1 gynandro in ABRI collection. Also there is a female of parva (caught on a flower with fingers in Uganda) Thierry

I know one reliable account of a UK collector who bought a box of papered Central African butterflies for a few pounds at an insect fair and discovered a female P. antimachus among them. What luck, wish it happened to me.
