  1. Unfortunate common name for such a stunner! Posted 6 years ago
    1. Couldn't agree more, named after "being attracted to rotting fruit". Oh, like any butterfly ever?

      What would you name it? I'm going for "Pearl-streaked Earthwing".

      1. Good one! Aurora Leafwing ... Or, the Lightning Leafwing. Posted 6 years ago
        1. Aurora is a great name, it does have some of its colors! They should put us in charge of this. Posted 6 years ago
          1. Definitely! We would be much more creative and fair! Posted 6 years ago
