I've been looking at the images of Danaus chrysippus but I don't see any with as much white on the wings as my spotting so would that still be the Plain Tiger? I know nothing about butterflies etc just love spotting : ) Perhaps you could enlighten me please
RP Mainali
That is plain tiger falls on Danidae family. The many white spot on thorax region indicates, it falls on danidae family. Thank You
