Common Olivewing, Nessaea aglaura, a really nice Nymphalid, DGF size....

That's quite some contrast between the colours of the upperside and underside, Paul.

Fabulous butterfly.

Next up is Consul fabius, the Tiger Leafwing.... I think I remember this from a tea card set in my childhood (????), stirring up a butterfly interest in me...

Found this on EBay. Relive those childhood memories.

Looks as if we all had the same childhood ...

Here's Minnie with Consul fabius from that very set (under its old name of Protogonius cecrops):



I didn't realise it was only worth £4.73.

For those memories Guy - priceless!

Ha ha.. fantastic... thank you

Here ia a Red Rim, Biblis hyperia....

Dynamine artemisia, the Small-eyed Sailor, is an absolute beauty, as small as a Large Heath Heath, but of a hue I've never encountered in a butterfly elsewhere... a real treat...

Two beauties, by name and appearances, both attracted, like many others, to fermented fruit bait kept going by my host in Honduras, Robert Gallardo.They are DGF sized......

Smyrna blomfildia, Blomfild's Beauty... and Smyrna karwinskii, Karwinski's Beauty...

Colobura dirce, the Dirce Beauty, Small Tort sized....

Beauties by name, beauties by nature! What fantastic undersides Paul.
