Viceroy

Hi Ian, this is a beautiful butterfly!

I have removed this from the Monarch Migration mission for you. This would be a nice addition to the Butterflies and Moths of the World mission:

No problem! It's what Project Noah is here for :D And yes, still a fantastic butterfly to find, they're so gorgeous!

Cool! I wasn't sure and I almost let it be a help me identify find. Thank you for letting me know! It was quite a pleasant find!

So cute! I hope I can spot one someday. Great!

Hi Ian! This is a lovely photo, but the butterfly you have here is actually the Viceroy. It is very similar to the Monarch, but it's identified by that bold back line that runs *across* the wings. Great find, still!
