Autumn leaf butterfly

From an evolution point of view, in flight, the coloration mimics the danaus butterflies like the plain tiger, the equivalent in other countries would be the monarch. These butterflies come from caterpillars that fed on milkweed type plants, rendering both the caterpillars and the butterflies extremely distasteful to predators, making it a good butterfly to mimic. When not flying, its wings are always parked together, allowing it to blend in with the undergrowth.
