Chocolate Soldier Butterfly

Junonia iphita

Description:

Brown butterfly that blends in with the dry leaves. When the wings are open a series of tiny circles can be seen on the edges of the wings. I waited a very long time for it to open its wings...it did so very briefly.

Habitat:

Wooded area near a Buddhist shrine.
