Buckeye Butterfly

Beautiful and incredible coloring!

I agree with James; interesting to see a buckeye with red and blue colors rather than brown and yellow

Gorgeous shots...superb. I love the blue, the Common Buckeye in Florida does not have that coloring...thanks for sharing

Nymphalidae, Nymphalinae, Junonini, Junonia sp. and either Junonia genoveva or Junonia evarete. Not distinguishable from this picture, you would need to see the underside of the antennae. Junonia coenia is a species of US and the Caribbean and not found in Bolivia although there is mentioned in Wiki in Colombia. I am very sceptic about this info. Unfortunately you cannot trust most of the IDs you will find about these 2 species... https://www.flickr.com/photos/kkertell/11536956486/ http://www.ross.no/communicate/2012/11/22/genoveva-buckeye-junonia-genoveva/ http://tolweb.org/onlinecontributors/app;jsessionid=E52979794EDF770FB0DD7403E4EBA0DA?page=ViewImageData&service=external&sp=22515 https://www.flickr.com/photos/21182099@N05/14407982194/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/trekman/8687804904/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/21182099@N05/9110589660/ http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2909/14492690852_e2fde30bce.jpg From Bolivia: http://www.danske-natur.dk/images68/ble140361aPM.jpg

Excellent - beautiful :)

Beautuful butterfly, nice spotting Pieter.

Wow! another beautiful finding! You convinced me: I will put Bolivia on my list :-)

You literally cannot get a picture of this butterfly in better light!

The Common Buckeye or simply Buckeye, Junonia coenia. http://news365.co/10-most-amazing-butterflies-in-the-world/

I saw this interesting fact to explain the color on your Buckeye: Common buckeyes exhibit seasonal polyphenism, the summer version of the butterfly has light yellowish ventral wings and is called "linea". The fall morph has pink ventral wings, and is called the "rosa" morph.

Beautiful!! PieterColpaert. Is it some type of Buckeye Butterfly, Junonia?
