Hello, and thank you for curating this lovely page. Your posts bring me much joy and inform me of all sorts of lovely creatures. I was hoping you might share an assortment of winged beauties from the Brahmaea genus, larvae and adults, if that's not too much to ask. I believe them to be among the most lovely insects and I'm sure others will too. Thank you again!

BY YOUR COMMAND MY LIEGE!
