Description: | These small and very distinctive butterflies are found across eastern Asia from northern India to China and the Indonesian islands. They are fast flying forest butterflies, and can sometimes be mistaken for other species because their tails are not always visible in flight. In Malaysia and Singapore this species is known as Itamputi from the Malay words "hitam", meaning black, and "putih", meaning white. | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Identifier: | emu.ecatalogue.invertebratezoology.20031 | Go to resource |
