Hmm, just found this one: http://www.heliconius.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/085_narcaeaM-e1335721488826-1024x606.jpg IDed as Narcaea! So yours is probably also a variation/form of Narcaea!? http://www.heliconius.net/heliconius-3/ethilla-2-2 Looks like being a male, like yours?? Safe ID is Heliconius ethilla, maybe you got another ID or confirmation on facebook? SO maybe Heliconius ethilla narcaea seems to be the right one.

Hi Kel! I think yours is Heliconius ethilla and probably not Heliconius ethilla narcaea, but Heliconius ethilla flavomaculatus. Please, verify and compare! http://www.butterfliesofamerica.com/L/heliconius_ethilla_narcaea_types.htm Some others: http://www.butterfliesofamerica.com/L/t/Heliconius_ethilla_a.htm
