Ariadne merione
Orange butterfly with brown lines whose larvae feed almost exclusively on Castor Ricinus communis. It is similar in appearance to Ariadne ariadne, the Angled Casto.
tropical forest
I spotted this in Cat Tien National Park.
Thanks harsuame. @bayucca, I think you're right with A. merione. I see some exact matches with that, though like you said maybe they were wrongly ID'd. I'm not sure but will go with A. merione for now.
I am pretty sure it is an Ariadne sp., but you have to verify Merione. There are some others like Ariadne. And I am not sure if there are some mis-IDed one on the web?
