Great colors, Jeroen. It's hard to identify butterflies, but this looks like a swallowtail to me. Would you happen to know more? Posted 13 years ago

The Malachite

"Siproeta stelenes" is a neotropical brush-footed butterfly. The malachite has large wings that are black and brilliant green or yellow-green on the upperside and light brown and olive green on the underside. It is named for the mineral malachite, which is similar in color to the bright green on the butterfly's wings.
