      Hi! Yes, Ferdy. But I didn't proceed with location because it is a captive species from a Tropical Butterfly Center. I suppose it will possibly led to false info about this species. What shall I do, proceed with Location?

      p.s. I added now ''Portugal" on photo description.       Posted 6 years ago, modified 6 years ago

        Thank you. Yes, you can go ahead. We don't have a way to discriminate between captive and wild other than using the "zoo" tag. Posted 6 years ago
