The Hesperidae, family for which there was, in Paris, a specialist in that order Mabille. With the approval of M. Bouvier, we sat down to agree on a work plan. Classification, or more accurately, the establishment of the collection was taken up at the beginning, with the Papilionidae, and has continued since then as methodically as resources and materials of the service allow. Mr. Boullet was paying a technician, charged exclusively with the preparation of butterflies; every month, I sent to Corbie a stock of specimens of the family being classified. These were returned me or reported on during the two or three days that he spent each month in Paris during which time we worked together." 〔http://chimie.these.free.fr/CHIMTHE302.htm Documents disponibles au laboratoire de chimie du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle travaux scientifique Le Cerf〕 The totality of Boullet's world insect collection (25,000 Lepidoptera notably rich in specialist collections of Neotropical Hesperiidae and Papilionidae; Heliconiinae and Satyridae and containing many rare and expensive ''Morpho'', ''Agrias'' and ''Ornithoptera'') was given, on his death and with a sum of money for its maintenance to Muséum national d'histoire naturelle in Paris where it is now held.
