The Smooth-banded sister (Adelpha cytherea marcia) From a hike along the banks of the Bananito river in 2014. I just realised that ca 1 1/2 hours before taking this picture, I had observed a butterfly of the same species freshly emerged from its chrysalis, drying its wings. This species is listed as common, so it was probably a different individual, but who knows :) https://www.jungledragon.com/image/146029/tropical_butterfly_emerging_from_chrysalis.html Adelpha cytherea,Costa Rica,Fall,Falter,Gebiete,Geotagged,Insekt,Schmetterling,Smooth-banded sister,Tiere,butterfly,mariposa
