But if you keep teasing me with this amazing skippers then I will have to visit Mexico. Yes I have here, you can find them in my collection if you just write 'skipper' on the search.

Wow I didn't know it :( you have this 2 species in your collection (in Project Noah)? here are a lot of skippers :) thank you!

You welcome, of course they are the cutest but unfortunately in my country we have only 2 species and they are a bit boring compared to your amazing ones.

Thank you! @FaredinAliyevski :) do you like skippers?
