I always thought that this was a Paper Kite butterfly. I don't know all the butterflies properly though, it just looks like the pictures I've seen of the species.
Also, are the Blue Morphos 'Peleides?' or is that a different butterfly. Again, they look like the pictures.

Yup, that's another alternative common name for Idea leuconoe - this is why I always use scientific names! Once you're onto invertebrates and fish most species have multiple common names.
Even reptiles can be a nightmare with common names. And some groups of the others - rodents in particular (where a lot of modern checklists start using the genus name to avoid using 'mouse', 'rat' or 'hamster' in the names - Neumann's Arvicanthis, Great Balkan Calomyscus etc).

Ah, yes. Rhinos (or rhinoceroses). Like good old Indian Rhinos. Sorry, Great Indian Rhino. Oh, no - Greater One-horned Asian Rhino. Or just Greater One-horned Rhino?
