Same family/subfamily as the monarch, but I think yours is the Plain Tiger, Danaus chrysippus. Also similar to Danaus genutia, but the markings are different. Please, verify yourself! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danaus_(genus) http://www.butterflycircle.com/checklist%20V2/CI/index.php/start-page/startpage/showbutterfly/42
