Graphium nomius
Spot Swordtail, Graphium nomius is a beautiful butterfly found in South and Southeast Asia that belongs to the Swallowtail family. One of the grandest sights is a host of Spot Swordtails mud-puddling or swarming around a flowering forest tree. The Spot Swordtail gets its name from the beautiful line of distinct white spots along the margin of its wings.
