Hello together,
has someone ever finished a breeding of Argema mittrei from egg to pupae on eucalyptus? And if yes, on wich eucalyptus species (gunnii etc.).
It‘s always said eucalyptus would work but i am really not sure if someone ever did it from egg to pupae. 
Thanks i advance for sharing your experience.
Best regards,
Lukas
I've been told by an experienced breeder of the species that gunni works but produces smaller adults. How much smaller?
I don't know. I'll be waiting for the timing to be right so I can use liuquidambar.
I tried several sp. of Eukalyptus and really NONE of over 100 Caterpillars of Argema mittrei ever took it. But I read that someone tried Pistache to feed them. It would be graet if they could be feeded on other footplants too.
