thanks EarlyStages...
Yes, healthy Plain Tiger pupae are a beautiful green or pinkish.
Thanks EarlyStages. Unfortunate? Is it dead? Is that why it is that colour, as the photos show the Plain Tiger as green in colour.
Based upon the slimmer, rounder shape, I think an unfortunate Plain Tiger (D. chrysippus) is much more likely . . .http://www.ifoundbutterflies.org/111-dan...(vs. http://www.ifoundbutterflies.org/111-dan...)
