Comment:   Amazing record! It would be really interesting to see if it was just a stray or possible a colony from the WC. Brilliant record!

Comment:   Not the first W Cape record for brutus this season but the first in SABCA. Pinelands planted a load of African Mahogany saplings that seem to have come in infested with larvae! It'll be interesting to see if they colonize Cape Town like the Yellow Pa
