There's a new butterfly field guide coming out and they're still looking
photos of live specimens of certain species of butterflies.  They prefer
slides, but digital images are OK as long as the resolution is high
enough.  They're paying $50 for each one they publish.  (I have no
relation to this company other than that they may use one of my images.)
