Great, thanks. Yes, my brother works in your milieu :-)

I introduced PN to my students last year after I had just discovered it myself. I intend to use it during the next ecology topic I teach. I don't think I've met a teacher with your last name. Or though I may have and just forgotten the name. I'm much better at remembering faces than names.

Hi again travellingchez. Please, as I suggested for the lizard scientific name :-) BTW I say your profile blurb and was wondering if you ever incorporate PN into your classwork? [I was also curious if you ever occasioned to meet/correspond with an international science teacher with my (last) name (schools in Saudi, Singapore, India)].

The Wikipedia link lists the food plants they use :-)

Thanks Frazier. I'll have to keep a look out for those caterpillars having a munch of my garden.
