EarlyStages.yes I pass this plant on my way from Chaiyaphum to Chonburi.
And in January I found the caterpillar of Troides aeacus.
I cannot download on noah for some reason the compatibilty button has disapeared.It was the only program I had to use it on.So I can't download a Photo.Thanks for your help with I.D.in the past.My email is lennyworthington@hotmail.co.uk.
Lenny, do any local Troidini utilize it as a larval hostplant, albeit rarely?
Gorgeous species!
