Orange Palm Dart Cephrenes augiades (adult male) caterpillar seen at ... http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/836... I have decided that this is different - thanks to Lori.tas
Yes kadavoor it looks like a jet fighter. Interestingly this seemed an unusual spotting then. I had never seen one before but in the last 8 hours I have seen at least five.
It looks like the Skippers we have here in the U.S. I love seeing such similar species on different continents!
I took a shot of one of these about 5 years back in Seaford. Great to be able to put a name to it that isn't just cool looking mothy butterfly thing.
Thanks lori... that was quick.
The museum info is pretty ordinary.... sothis what!? :)
