Does anyone have any tropical aristolochias, in particular
ringens
,
trilobata
,
indica
or
tagala
going spare? It's a long shot, but someone is offering me eggs of the birdwing butterfly
Ornithoptera priamus

Thanks Rogan. Not sure about that species. My contact says the caterpillars will eat
Aristolochia clematitis
(which I have), and that surprises me as they won't eat

A. cymbifera
is quite close to
A. ringens
(...I think?) - I have much seed available for free and for nothing...
