Papilio demodocus subsp. demodocus
slightly smaller than my little finger, brilliant colours, red horns that went in and out as he got flustered.
eating a lime tree in Siavonga
would like to know what he becomes. With such a beautiful start, I'm hoping for a magnificent butterfly. Was amazingly proficient at destroying my lime seedling.
Thanks for the help everyone! While I didn't like the damage, I just loved this little fellow - a beaut!
