Here is the only extant example which I have of Colias wiskotti.
This male was procured from an aged collection from the decade of
the 1920's.
This is a remarkable species for its most unusual color -- that of "olive-green".
I really know nothing of the species itself so I cannot say how common, uncommon,
or restricted in range it may be. However, it sure is a "dandy" of a Colias and
every bit as large as our american version -- Colias eurytheme.
I'll take a good 15 to 20 of these anyday for their unusual color.
Again, any information about this species would be appreciated !
