My step-father was a collector who passed away some years back. My mother had a small portion of his collection put into a couple of framed settings for display. I'd like to ID what butterflies are in each. Can anyone help? I'm only able to add one image to this post. I'm hoping that once it's posted I'll be able to add the second image. Thanks very much in advance.  |

The second from bottom specimen in #1 and bottom in #2 are both Papilio thoas cinyras (probably from Peru) and the middle specimen in #2 is Graphium doson from SE Asia. It's difficult to be certain of the subspecies of the latter from the photo. I will leave the rest to other members, as my field is really confined to family Papilionidae which the specimens I have identified belong to.
Adam.

The big blue bottom specimen in #1 is Morpho menelaus and the second from bottom in #2 is a moth, Urania ripheus.
