From the lack of postings yesterday, I am guessing that it was wet down your way. Well, up here, It has finally started to get better, and I was able to pop out dor a short time. Not much about but, I did manage to find a second colony of the Malay Tiger.
Malay Tiger (Danaus affinis malayanus) - Male, only shown females before.
1131211313
Great Mormon (Papilio memnon agenor female f. distantianus). Incedentally, on the checklist, there is another tailed female shown by Sum Chee Ming, taken in Hong Kong, which is superficially like this form. However, the hindwing white markings are different, and it lacks the red markings (present on both upper and undersides on f. distantianus) at the hindwing dorsum. Could someone tell me which female form that is?
