This species is identified correctly.
Sure, on the right.
Oops, I dried a couple, forgot about them, will upload tomorrow :)
Woow, what's a photo! You've got it high-arty.
Might it have been atropos flew in? lachesis seems to have darker hindwings as well as reddish hue in the "chin" area of the skull pattern, doesn't it?
That's the same butterfly.
Will be the underside as soon as the light is:)
The underside is #13781 photo, haven't got it spread yet, still being dried.
Seems to be male, considering descriptions, couldn't find upperside photos though. As for butterfly—ant symbiosis, might be in this case since I found it with a group of ants which I took away. Yesterday I spread it, such an amazing form, I'll upload it as it gets dried completely. Suspect though it might lose its blue color for it's gradually getting more purple.
Would you please tell, what are they feeding on so vivaciously?
The feed plant (not on the photo) is Galinsoga ciliata, http://www.plantarium.ru/page/view/item/16915.html.
Yes, that's it.
Meh, still so much to know :))) Not each species' areal extent do I check up though.
Could be Euploea klugii erichsonii?
Doesn't it look like Athyma asura? ... I'll shoot it in a moment and upload those mine who spread.
This species is identified correctly.
Meh, so that is it! Once you move it to identified I'll add mine two with description. Caterpillars oddly feed solely on plantains that are not mentioned as feed plants anywhere.
:) Neither do I. Agree with you, many times I shot myself in the foot using its info of orchids.
Thanks, you convinced me. Here the mass flight happened in the very mid-April and specimens were colored quite variously. Sorry for doubt, I was confused with the wikipedia description, here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catopsilia_pomona where they differ a lot.
?
Male.
:( Sorry, maybe next time. They all emerged and the empty pupae look whatever.
I beg your pardon, sealed - at first
I ask a question - whether there is still a division into Catopsilia crocale and Catopsilia pomona (at the first black mustache, the second - reddish)
The fifth age, having pupated.
This species is identified correctly.
Meh we didn't meet up, I live here.
Graphium arycles arycles?
Detected in Cambodia, Sihanoukville, December 2011
Originally the wing stripes are colored white (there they might seem different because of the background color), I've got a poor photo made the same day, in shoals, where the stripes are of bright white. Second difference we can see on the shot shown is in its clearly seen transparent fringe at the white stripes frontiers on a forewing. Also, there are distinctions between genitalia, whatsoever, ...
