Dear All, I was trying to list down the names of people who have contributed significantly after 1990 towards our knowledge of Butterflies of India. Please help me in completing this list. If you identify such a person, please let me know their name, along with their specialization. Thanks a lot.
Since I have limited access/knowledge about people working on butterflies of India, my sincere apologies to people whose name is missing from this list. Please feel free to highlight your work. The idea is to help the budding lepidopterists of India to contact relevant people, if they have interest in specific field and also at specific locations.
