Interesting spread of visitors from all over the world. Can you name all the countries so far?

I can see Australia (Melbourne, Sydney but what's that one in the middle), Indonesia (Jakarta), Singapore, Malaysia (Sarawak), Philippines, Thailand (must be Les), Vietnam, China/Hong Kong (must be Roger), Bangladesh, Oman, Iran , Finland, Italy, Czech Republic, Germany, England, Brazil, Mexico and USA (can't name all the cities, anyone wants to help?).

Your fame is spreading. The one in the middle of Australia must be Alice Springs, but none of my Australian contacts live there!

Horace Tan shares his meticulous record of the early stages of the Malayan Bush Brown (Mycalesis fusca fusca)

I must say that I enjoyed reading this and the other articles. I salute you and the others for such dedication; it certainly has spiced up my life.

Sorry had to post this here and not in the blog since i lost my blogger account.

Thanks Henry. A lot of hard work on Horace's part on his Life Histories series is helping me keep to at least 1 article per week since the blog went active.

Still need more help from the others who can contribute.

Life Histories series : The Narrow Spark (Sinthusa nasaka amba)

Horace manages to nail the life history of the Narrow Spark. This species was not in the early authors' checklists and was discovered by ButterflyCircle members in a small forested patch on the fringe of the nature reserves. Our sharp-eyed life histories expert managed to spot a female ovipositing on its host plant, and the rest, they say, is (life) history!
