  Thanks, Ferdy! Glad to share it! Although, I must say that I owe a great deal of it to JD. Because I like to upload a picture after I have identified the specie present, I spend a lot of time identifying it just JD. I have learned a lot about many different species, both that I have captured and from others, by just spending time browsing around on here. It really is great! Posted 11 years ago
