Phalanta phalantha
Orange medium sized butterfly, with pattern of black striped waves at the outer edges of its wings. Lines of spots towards the middle that ends in very faint spots and lines. This specimen was spotted laying eggs on several brances and leaves of different trees and bushes, in the same surrounding. Color-pattern is not identical to the pictures I see, might be a subspecies.
Urban settlement, close to small patches of jungle.
