Help needed for identification:
Can you identify the butterflies below?
Even though some of the pictures below are of poor image quality, they were included so that an identification of each species could be obtained. All the pictures (apart from those of butterflies 5 and 6, which were slides) were scanned from original paper prints with variation in reproduction quality. Butterflies 5 and 6 were taken in Brazil in summer 2001 on a Minolta 800Si body + Sigma EX 2.8 105 macro lens using Fuji Provia 100F slide film. The rest of the butterflies were photograhed in Uganda in summer 1998 on a Minolta 7xi body with a Sigma 4-5.6 70-300 mm APO macro lens using Kodak 100 paper print films.
