Hi everyone,

What's the best way to mount butterfly wings for viewing under a Wentzscope?

Also, any tips on protecting/preserving butterfly specimens in a traveling exhibit? (We're using a small butterfly collection, about 12 specimens, that's a buy-out item. The butterflies are currently on cotton batting--which smells of mothballs--and pressed against glass, which we plan to replace with acrylic.)

Any insights would be helpful!

Thanks,
Jenny
