    This butterfly is mimicked by a female morph of the Common Mormon (Papilio polytes), form romulus.
    Common Mormon butterfly (female) These butterflies emerge in mid-springs in India, and are pretty tough to capture on camera as they are really swift. Like all butterflies they are shy and feed on honeysuckles that commonly grow in the forest. Common Mormon,Geotagged,India,Papilio polytes
