Description: | This species is widespread in eastern Asia, and there are several sub-species found across the region. They are forest butterflies, and the adults feed on nectar. They are often seen along jungle paths around flowering trees. There are several different female colour forms that mimic other, distasteful species of butterfly. The caterpillar feeds on citrus plants, particularly the Pomelo (Citrus maxima). | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East animals natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
