Parides sp
In the enclosed butterfly garden at Calloway Gardens, Pine Mountain, Georgia. I think this one might be a Scarlet Mormon but I'm not sure. This is the only photo I got of this one.
Captive specimen. In an enclosed butterfly garden.
See comment below by Bayucca. This is another swallowtail butterfly, native to Central and South America. Looks similar to me in many ways to some of the other swallowtails. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parides ----- http://butterfliesofamerica.com/t/Paride... ----- https://www.google.com.ph/search?q=cattl...

Bayucca, thanks again for your ID. Joe
Most probably a Parides sp. and might be Parides iphidamas.
