Description:

Less common butterfly, spotted along a jungletrack. Pretty new for me. About 2cm wingspan, pretty small. Any idea anyone?

Thanks...Learned something again today. Seems indeed it belongs to raciniidae.

Hi, this is not a butterfly, is an Homopteran

Tom, I don't think it's a butterfly. It looks a lot like this spotting.
