Cephenes augiades
Tiny bright golden orange butterfly with some black/dark markings mostly visible on upper side of wings, black eyes, antennae tipped with black. Very triangular shape to insect especially when resting. Larvae are pale green and banded.
Found in Queensland & NSW, but has also been found in Victoria, WA and other areas after introduction. Prefers habitat around palm tree fronds. This one near paddock dam not far from planted palms & native reeds.
