Common Rose Butterfly

Pachliopta aristolochiae

Description:

The body is red. Upper wing has charcoal stripes. Hindwings have red and white spots.

Habitat:

It sailed over my house, just passed all the plants in my garden and settled on a tree outside my house...way above my head...I took two blind shots...and it was off.

Notes:

My guide book by Arun Pratap Singh calls this Atrophaneura aristolochiae.
