Heliconius charithonia vazquezae this the southern version of Heliconius charithonia ! There is a slight difference in stripes and in Costa Rica you don&#039;t get the others.<br />
It is the second generation in the garden since we are here and I am really glad that my strict NO to any chemicals we have pierced fruit and veg, but more diversity in butterflies. Those hardly ever leave the jungle part of the garden.
