Expedition: Central Cameroon, 2010

One of my best collecting trips ever. Central Cameroon. Unbelievably vast and totally undeveloped territory. Almost no agriculture and very little logging. A 300m walk takes you from dry savanna to humid rainforest. Very friendly, relaxed, helpful and tactful locals. Here are some (pretty cappy) photos from the trip.!

While many specimens were collected in Mengoeng, I picked up many more on a 4-day trip to Meiti. On the way is the previous location of the village that moved when the dirt road Yaounde-Yoko was built. Now the trail to Meiti is still used, connecting the village to several hunting encampments.

I collected most swallowtails (incl. the 180mm Papilio zalmoxis ), whites, polyommatines and some Acraea near open water. In this respect, the \"dry\" season was actually helpful for collecting. Most charaxins and satyrids are from sweet bait traps. Other charaxins were captured on rotting monkey entrails. Quite a few Limenitidinae were collected near a freshly felled palm tree with sap still oozing. Only a handful of Junonia/Precis are from open savanna patches. The sphinges were all taken at Meiti in a light trap.

<p> My most helpful guide, Mr. Thomas Ambi, here with his daughter. </p> <p> View from a caffe in Yaounde. </p> <p> Start of the 200km dirt road trip: loading up the transport van at Yaounde. </p> <p> Layover in the village of Ntui.
