[Gerald Ochsenhofer]

Actually those two pics would make great posters! Like with latin names small in the corner under every eye and maybe some (faint) frames...

[Matthieu Berroneau]

Thanks Gerald !
Yes, I think I'll print one of them, maybe a mixed of the two...

[Pierre-Yves Vaucher]

well done, nice poster... There is an unidentified species you found in almost each eye: Matthieus berronensis !
