Interesting
Some of the first Ornithoptera were also collected with arrows by natives.

Rothschild seemed hardly to comment on Meek's shotgun female O. alexandrae, with all the holes, he was just very pleased to have a new species. He urged Meek to find the male because he knew it would be special and how right the great scientist was.

Interesting link, even more interesting though, on the link click on the "previous" button and it takes you to an article about the Loch Ness monster, there are apparently only 2 species in the world without a type specimen, good old "Nessy" which was named and us, Homo Sapiens.
