Field Notes

Description:

This butterfly has a wingspan of approximately 3 inches. Its wings are mostly black colored, with some bluish-whitish marks on them. Its body is skinny and completely black colored. The edges of its wings have a few white specks dotted on them.

Habitat:

I found this butterfly in the Butterfly Garden in Changi Airport. Inside, the temperature was cool and moist, with a bit of sunlight. At 3:55 PM, I found it.

Notes:

This butterfly kept on flying a lot, not staying in one place for too long.
