Congo import which is considered a rare occurrence given local political concerns. Six bags imported in one box.

High casulalties which is normal. Few survived but we have the best of the shipment.
We are working on Adamas formosus, Aphyoplatys duboisi, A.cognatum, A.sp.labarrei, E.spilargyreus,
E.chevalieri.
These are first off rough shots.....
