Hi tripathivinay150, Your butterfly looks like the Common Mormon. So, I have sent you a Species ID Suggestion. However, I would like to suggest that you look at the link in my Suggestion because I saw that there are 3 Subspecies mentioned in Butterflies of India and it seems very likely that your spotting could be one of them. I hope you enjoy Project Noah and it will be nice to see some more spottings. I am sure that one of the rangers will soon .welcome you, officially, to Project Noah
