Company paraglider designer Xavier Demoury has also designed gliders for ITV Parapentes and Aerodyne Technologies. The company has been noted for its large range of gliders offered, especially two-place gliders. At several points in its history the company has offered more than one type of two-place glider, such as in 2003-04 when both the Nervures Stromboli and Nervures Alpamayo were in the line. The line of intermediate gliders in the mid-2000s also included the Altea and Estive as well as the Valluna and the mountain descent Kenya.

Its wings are transparent and pterostigma is yellow, framed with heavy black nervures. Its abdomen is azure blue with broad black dorsal marks up to segment 7. Segment 2 has a distinct broad dorsal spot shaped like a thistle-head connected narrowly to a fine apical ring. This mark will help to distinguish it from Pseudagrion species.
|
|
It is a medium sized damselfly with bluish-white face and black-capped brown eyes. Its thorax is cinnamon brown with a black mid-dorsal carina. Its wings are transparent with yellowish-red pterostigma framed in black nervures. Abdomen is dark-brown up to segment 7 and segments 8 to 9 are azure blue bordered below with black.

|
It is a medium sized damselfly with black-capped blue eyes. Its thorax is black on dorsum and azure blue on the sides. There is a very narrow azure blue antehumeral stripe and a moderately broad black stripe on the postero-lateral suture on each side. Wings are transparent with reddish-brown pterostigma, framed in thick black nervures.
|
|
The brown nervures towards the margin heavily dusted with dark brown, the dusting being widest before it reaches the margin, thus giving the nervules a swollen appearance. Between them the internervular rays, though more slender, are similarly indicated. Unlike peneleos these rays extend to the bases of the internervular areas. A series of black spots, most of which are rather large.
|
|
Females have chocolate-rufous-brown forewings with yellow nervures and a round white spot below the cell in the basal one-third of the wing. There is a slightly curved median darker chocolate band and a postdiscal row of eight intranervular wedge-shaped white patches. The hindwing ground colour and median band are similar, but with a postdiscal row of wedge-shaped golden- yellow patches.
|
|
The forewings, costa and outer half of the males are black, the basal portion below the costal vein white and with all the wings somewhat hyaline. The hindwings are white, with the outer margin black, invading the nervures and so scalloping the black margin. Both wings of the females are white, subhyaline and with the outer margins black and scalloped along the veins. There are traces of an interrupted black transverse postmedian band on the forewings.
|
|
Male Legs orange buff ringed with brown; pectus buff; palpi orange buff, extreme tip of third segment brown; head orange buff; antennae pale brown; thorax orange buff with black dots on tegulae and patagia; abdomen buff washed with a darker shade. Forewing deep orange buff, nervures orange, the whole wing sown with dark brown dots and spots, a quadrate dark brown patch in cell and a larger irregular one on discocellulars. Hindwing semihyaline buff. Female Similar but larger.
|
|
The forewings are chocolate brown, with yellow nervures and a large yellow patch in the basal one-third of the wing below the cell. There is a postmedian band of intranervular coalescent golden-yellow patches, the upper four wedge shaped, the lower four arrowhead shaped, the points of all truncated. The hindwings are the same ground colour, but with only six patches in the postmedian band, all of which are arrowhead shaped, the lower three only having their points truncated.
|
|
The hindwings are much paler and almost patternless and the transverse band of the forewings is also more concavely curved. Females have liver-chestnut forewings with a white spot below the median in the basal one-third of the wing, a median slightly sinuate darker band and the nervures and marginal line are yellow. There is a postdiscal coalescent band of intranervular white wedge-shaped patches truncated distad. The hindwings are similar in ground colour, but the band of white patches is lunate.
|
|
Males are similar to Cotana unistrigata, but the basal half of the forewings has a buffish-cream colour, and the outer half is buffish grey. Furthermore, the median band is more oblique and brown (not black) and there is no stigma. Females differ from C. unistrigata in being smaller and the white patch and postdiscal bands are much larger and pure white. Furthermore, the nervures and margins are deep bright yellow and the thorax and costal area are rufous orange.
|
|
The basal one-third of the forewings of the males is cream white, with an irregular somewhat hourglass-shaped rufous-chocolate patch running into the middle from the costa with a white dot in the centre. From this patch, a somewhat indistinct irregular dark line runs to the inner margin. The median one-third is chocolate, bordered exteriorly by a lunulate whitish band and with the nervures white. There is also a postmedian broad crenulate lavender-grey band edged narrowly outwardly with chocolate.
|
|
The forewings of the males are deep chocolate liver brown with two indistinct darker postmedian bands beyond which is a row of black dots. The hindwings are similar. Females have pale chocolate liver-brown forewings, with the basal two-thirds of the costo-subcostal area suffused with cinnamon rufous and the nervures yellowish brown. There is a large cream-white patch below the middle of the cell and there is a postdiscal transverse band of eight intranervular cream-white patches, the upper five being wedge shaped, the lower three lunate.

The antennae are ferruginous and the eyes are ovate (shape resembling an egg). The head is emarginate (having a notched tip or edge) from its posterior view and also rugose, along with the thorax and node (a segment between the mesosoma and gaster); these body parts are covered with large confluent punctures. The basal segment of the abdomen has transversely curved striae (grooves which run across the body). The colour of the thorax is usually greenish, the wings are subhyaline (they have a glassy appearance), and the nervures (the veins of the wings) are testaceous (brick-red colour).
|

Front wings ferruginous, paler just beyond the middle, with a broad submarginal black band along the outer margin; apical part of submarginal edge intersected with black at the nervures; a triangular black spot, its base resting upon the first subcostal nervule near the apex; a black elongate spot closing the cell; two spots, one above the cell, the other halfway between the subapical spot and the end of the cell; two black spots placed obliquely just below the end of the cell. Hindwings as above, but without any spots, and with black marginal edge. Body ferruginous.
|
|
The forewings are whitish, tinged and irrorated (sprinkled) with brown. The costal area is browner and there are small antemedial black spots on the subcostal and median nervures, vein 1 and above the inner margin, as well as a black point in the cell towards the extremity and discoidal bar. The postmedial line is black, dentate to vein 4, then with an oblique bar to vein 2, then retracted to below the end of the cell and excurved at the submedian fold and slightly above the inner margin. There is also a curved series of blackish points just before the termen and a terminal series.

Female. Upperside — front wings brown; outer margin reddish; a broad ferruginous band near the hind margin, interrupted above by a brown patch and by the nervures. Hindwings, basal half brown, apical half white tinted with blue green; outer margin brown, with orange upper edging, green below the outer tail; a submarginal row of violaceous lunules; two black spots at the anal angle. Underside only differs from C. ethalion in the brighter red of the submarginal lunules, in the central white band being only indicated by a paler shade of brown, and the less distinct black markings.Butler, A.G. (1866a): Monograph of the species of Charaxes, a genus of diurnal Lepidoptera.

Published on Internet. The leaf is erect, slightly concave and curved, leathery and thick, rigid despite somewhat flexible, meaning it will not break when it is slightly curved; at the base it is folded; green on the face, presenting numerous nervures, paler and brownish on the back where it shows a salient medium nerve. The inflorescence is basal, slender, pale green with subtle minute purple dots, highly alternately branched and large, sometimes bearing hundreds of flowers placed at regular distances. The flowers have a rounded but slightly triangular ovary; their segments are wide opened with yellow green sepals and petals, transversally stained or striped of brown; and white labellum with a yellow warted callus close to the base surrounded by brown orange stains.

It is black, suffused with rich purple, and with a sub-marginal row of scarlet spots. From the base of the fore-wings runs a scarlet band, narrowly continued along the costa for three-fourths of its length, but, beyond the cell, continued in a broad curve to the band of spots at a point opposite the middle of the hind-margin. On the under side the Preponas are varied with different shades of brown and grey; sometimes there is a transverse black or white line, and very frequently a number of short irregular zig-zag lines towards the base. On the hind-wings beneath there is either a sub-marginal row of small eyes between the nervures, or two larger eyes, one towards the tip, and the other towards the anal angle; the latter is sometimes visible above.

Papilio morondavana and Papilio erithonioides Expanse male 4 and 3/8, female 4 and 3/4 inches. Male. Upperside. Anterior wings marked nearly as in P. erithonioides, the basal third being densely irrorated with stramineous scales in lieu of the small spots or lines of the same colour arranged in nearly parallel rows in Papilio erithonioides. Posterior wings with the subbasal stramineous band broader than Papilio erithonioides, and on the costal margin extending rather broadly round the subapical ocellus, the outer part of the band between the costal and subcostal nervures being brightly ferruginous; the spots in the submarginal row are smaller and less lunulate outwardly, and the black spot at the lower end of the rufous anal spot of P. erithonioides is absent, the rufous spot of P. morondavana being rounder and paler; the space between the submarginal row and the band is more densely irrorated with stramineous scales. Underside. Resembles P. erithonioides, but paler.

The original description in Butler, 1883; Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. 1883 : 370, reads Allied to P. adrastus of Felder, from Ceram and New Guinea; but the male with a broad oblique subapical white belt, which does not quite reach the outer margin and is cut by the black nervures; the fascia on the secondaries narrower, formed more nearly as in the Australian P. aegeus, with zigzag outer edge, but of more uniform width throughout than in that species, and of a sordid cream-colour; a scarlet spot near the anal angle, well separated from the central fascia. The female differs in the whiter and oblique belt across the primaries, the inner edge of which is not so deeply zigzag, and therefore is not augulated as in the allied species, and the outer half toward apex suffused with grey so as greatly to reduce its width; secondaries with no trace of the central white patch, the submarginal scarlet spot large, oblong, and notched in front. Expanse of wings, Male , female .
