    The species might be incorrect for this one, but I'm not at all sure. It doesn't seem to match Jamides alecto exactly, but there does seem to be some variation (maybe with subspecies or seasonal variations). I'm leaving the ID as is, but just wanted to comment that the species might be wrong. Posted 2 years ago
