Thanks KK for taking time to explain..... One of the reasons for inquiring for Bfly checklists was that last week I took a pic of a bfly in the SGNP which I thought was "some" crow....... Then Nelson n Vivek set me right, as it turned out to be a common mime - form clytia which I understand is not common for that area.........
You hv a good flight back....

As u know it will be 'a bit' difficult for some species. Now a days the lemon pansy and to some extent the chocolate pansy can literaly be listed as 'vermin' around here (SGNP)....... :-) but I am not complaining..... Was hoping to see list of other members, I am still using Yuwaraj's list of 2001 for CEC area, lol.......... Blaise "Let the beauty we love be what we do.
