Verdens sjældneste
sommerfugl
Der
forsvinder dagsommerfuglearter hver eneste dag,
både kendte som ukendte arter! Man kan ikke
afgøre hvilken art der er den mest sjældneste!
Men
jeg kan fortælle om de mest kendte sjældne
sommerfugle. på Obi island øst
imellem Sulawesi og New
Guinea findes
nok den mest sjældneste i slægten fuglevinger: Ornithoptera
aesacus.
En
anden kendt historie er fra den store samler
epoke i det 19. århundredes. Det er om John
McGillivray, naturhistorikeren om
bord på HMS Rattlesnake, der
besejlede Stillehavet i 1884 -85. Han brugte et
haglgevær til sine indsamlinger af Fuglevinger.
På Salomonsøerne nedskød han
det først kendte eksemplar af Ornithoptera
victoriae.
Her den absolut sjældneste!
Er
hybriden som er fundet på Salomonsøen
Bougainville. Opdageren Abbe' Alotte of
Buin for a hybrid: Ornithoptera
allotei (hybrid of O.
victoriae
x O. priamus urvilleanus):
Denne sommerfugl er p.g.a. sin
sjældenhed, en af verdens dyreste solgte på
aktionerne, og en allotei han
sælges for typisk omkring £4,000.00 (US$7,000.00).
Navngivet af Lord W.
Rothschild i 1914,
som havde omkring 1. verdenskrig den størst
privat ejede samling af sommerfugle og fugle.
Altsammen er nu på British Museum.
En
sjov historie om en lige så sjælden sommerfugl,
er fra Admiralitetsøerne med relationer til
Danmark: fra Noona
Dan ekspeditionen 1961- 62; som
besøgte Manus øen i juni 1962. Hvor en
af forskerne med en småkalibrede haglbøsse
nedskød en
Ornithoptera
priamus admiralitatis (Rothschild, 1915) han.
Der findes i samlinger rundt om i
verden ialt 27 kendte eksemplarer! 1 stk. han med
gennemhullede vinger på Københavns museum. 9
stk. på British Museum og resten i private
samlinger! Lars
Andersen
d. 17 june 2007
Rettelse d. 28
januar 2020;
Vedr. Sjældenheden på den
sønderskudte Ornithoptera priamus
admiralitatis er den i dag er lokal udbredt og
ikke sjælden på øerne.
Jeg tjekkede lige Manus, den største af
øerne i Admiralitetsøerne gruppe, jeg kan se at
skoven er intakt.
