Field Notes

Description:

Tattered and worn, this beauty was clinging to the wall in our foyer this afternoon. About 5 inches across with rust coloured head and an interesting design along the leading edge of the wing. Diagonal white line across upper wings. Possibly double swallowtails but pretty ragged.

Habitat:

Outside protected area to our apt in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

Notes:

Thanks for the ID! What a great thing Project Noah is! I love the sharing!
