Phalanta phalantha
Phalanta phalantha is the commonest and most widespread member of the genus.
Savanna, forest edge. It is distributed from s.w. Arabia, eastward from India to China and Japan, and south to the Philippines, most of the south-east Asian islands, and northern Australia. It also occurs across sub-Saharan Africa from Gambia to Ethiopia, and south to South Africa and Madagascar.
I rescued this butterfly from a puddle along the entrance road to Baluran national park.
