I know Kurt - he is a true gentleman and he can verify the origin - if you wish his email I can provide it to you. The enlarged pic is miokensis - and nice acquisition. I know Ray did hybrids in Sogeri - and they were WONDERFUL - but illustrated some interesting traits as to their colors and their choices of host plants. I know that Les found many and gave me some pairs - but he mentioned that D of Y was almost done with miokensis - and since there is nobody to breed them - then not much will ever emanate from there.
Additionally - Birdwings 123 - my name is Greg - and sir makes me sound more geriatric or aristocratic than I wish or deserve!! Just kidding - Cheers

I have sent you a PM. I think it will also be great if you post some photos of the miokensis to show the forms of the subspecies.
