Yes, the seller recently obtained a large and comprehensive Papilionidae collection from an old collector.

this species is under CITES in Europe currently No it isn't. It is protected under EU regulations, CITES is different. Adam. |

radusho,
I agree with you that 'protected', whether under EU law or CITES, is 'protected' but I was trying to explain the difference, particularly so that non-Europeans understand that the EU regulations only apply within the EU whereas CITES applies virtually worldwide.

It says "ONLY FOR EU" on the listing, presumably the seller cannot get the necessary EU permit for export.

Sure, someone will buy it soon. It looks very fresh indeed, not an old specimen.
Is the seller Robert Westphal?

Ah, the reason I asked was that RW was in Rio a couple of years ago.
