Chlosyne theona mullinsi
Spotted on a banana trunk. This pupa measured just under an inch
Tropical dry forest in NW Costa Rica 9 weeks into the rainy season.
Great eye Early!! Funny, I was watching this pupa for days when to my dismay it had already been vacated. One minute later my attention was drawn to the adult flittering by which I later shot and have yet to post! Thank you for the help
It took several yearly visits to southernmost Texas before I was finally able to rear this "elusive" species.
