[5] "Around 1930, I trained a hunter, Mr. Pichot, a very intelligent and resourceful man, who, having gone to Africa, in turn educated many natives.Seeing the magnificent results he was obtaining, I asked him to look for me an extremely rare butterfly, of which there were perhaps two or three copies all over the world, the Charaxes Acraeoides.
I specified that the female had never before been captured, and that consequently, if he ever provided me with one, I would immediately send him a few thousand francs.
Mr. Pichot's mistake was that the butterfly was indeed the size that could be assumed of a female of Acraeoides, but he did not understand that its colours, much more vivid, prevented it from being one.
Madame Fournier, my best Parisian client, as soon as she saw this wonderful lepidopteran, never ceased [in her wish] to possess it.
I named my rarity Charaxes Fournierae.Le Moult (Eugène), Mes chasses aux papillons, Editions Pierre Horay, 1955, p. 283-284.
