Thank you for the data. On another point, it is worth mentioning the gender agreement issue. Since Edwards (1876) described it as Papilio oregonia most lepidopterists would use the spelling oregonia even though genus Papilio is masculine. There is a general agreement among lepidopterists that gender agreement articles (31.3 & 34.2) of the ICZN Code should be ignored and original spellings be used except where mandated by other articles of the Code, as per the resolution of the Societas Europaea Lepidopterologica discussed by Sommerer (2002) (To agree or not to agree - the question of gender agreement in the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. Nota Lepidopterologica 25: 191-204, available here: www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/41371975 ). Eminent lepidopterists around the world follow this recommendation, including the ICZN Commissioner who is an expert on nomenclature of Lepidoptera, Gerardo Lamas. Here's an example of a recent paper which mentions this issue: Kitching, I., Rougerie, R., Zwick, A., Hamilton, C., St Laurent, R., Naumann, S., Ballesteros Mejia, L. & Kawahara, A., 2018. A global checklist of the Bombycoidea (Insecta: Lepidoptera). Biodiversity Data Journal 6: e22236. doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.6.e22236The major exception is the Japanese Lepidoptera community who still conform to gender agreement articles. Adam.

Thanks for the info. I was not aware that it was described as oregonia. I have noticed that scientific names do not always follow Latin rules

Friends, I forgot to say that this is only Sakhalin. There is much more. Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Altai, Buryatia, Tuva, Vladivostok. I do not need money! I want to change or I can give. Just a gift!

Now a question for Adam !!! Dear friend, has this butterfly ever been with you? She came across to me today by chance from another entomologist. Ah, this was one that I bred here, and it looks very nice well spread. It seems to have found a good home too. In case you didn't realise "EM." on the stamp is short for "emerged". Adam.
