    This is not a marbled white but a blue tiger - Tirumala limniace.

      I am so sorry. It is indeed a blue tiger. Thank you for your input. It is very difficult to identify a species from a bunch of photographs for people like me. Posted 10 years ago

        It is indeed difficult when species from around the world are gathered in one place and you don't know where they come from and where to search respectively, but I have already identified a few of these from India so I knew what it was. If you hang out in the Jungle long enough, you will learn too ;) Posted 10 years ago
