I found some shots of Chester's butterflies on Webshots.

Since the zoo do not seem to be in any hurry to label thier butterflies, perhaps someone on the forum can identify these.

This user also has photos of Chester's birds, servals and komodo dragons on her home page.

I cant's pass from genus.... there are three shots of the same species of Morpho sp, one shot from Caligo sp. and three shots of three different species of Papilio sp, the last one being probably Papilio demoleus...

I'm uploading some of mine to the gallery at the mo. If anyone can put an ID to them I'd be very grateful!

I see only one unidentified, the "yellow buttefly" that is Siproeta stelenes.

It would help a lot if there were some labels in the enclosure.

The constantly changing display and acquiring of the butterflys would make it differcuilt, maybe a interactive reference book??

On saturday there was one of the new volunteers in the house with a series of sheets with all the species on but the house was to busy to get a list and by the time i returned he had gone and so had the list.
