Question Beautiful picture but are you sure this is correctly identified? I'm not a taxonomist, but take a look at [[1]] which is purported to be the same species. Could just be different lighting, wondering if someone can confirm. Mattximus (talk) 19:45, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Remember we're seeing the underside of the wings in this shot, and the upper side in the one you link. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 23:02, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - Yes, I was looking at the fur colour on the head, seemed a bit different. But I suspect it's just a lighting issue. Still these butterflies look rather alike, here is a different species: [[2]].
