Check out genus Senecio present in this area
The gill structure is more similar to S. ostrea. Also, I find that the yellowish color sets the two species apart visually here in the Midwest. T. versicolor is typically more white or gray with various colored stripes.
Nice find, this is a beautiful species I've only found a handful of times. Great work on documenting this species. Make sure to move it to the fungi category while you are updating the spotting.
Thanks everyone for your kind remarks.
Panama is fine for travel. I haven't traveled around much as I am studying in the northeast region of Panama, Bocas del Toro.
Thanks Jim Nelson and Pradeep Kumar! It's such a stunning frog species.
Hi Robert, this is infact a monarch. The key identifying characteristic between monarchs and queens is not white dots on the outside band. Queens are smaller butterflies with a darker color orange. The black vein markings on the hindwing are bordered by white. Also on the ventral view of the forewing, queens have much less black, and in some cases nearly no black patterning except on the edges of the wings.
How exciting! I've just uploaded a spotting for the Isla Popa color morph http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/198.... Thanks everyone for your kind words. The rain forest is such a wonderful place!
Not a caddisfly, but an antlion. Myrmeleontidae
What a beautiful spotting, and number 5000! Congratulations!
