vogelcommando 3 Jan 2015 Thanks dean ! Can it be that this species is also called "Banana butterfly"?
dean 10 Jan 2015 sorry for the delay VC it could be called the banana butterfly as they do feed on ripe bananas, but I haven't heard it called that. I once reared one in my living room it hatched just before Christmas, and used to roost in my Christmas tree.

vogelcommando 11 Jan 2015 So that would make it a Chistmas tree butterfly ! Banana butterfly is BTW a direct translation from a name used in the Netherlands "Bananen vlinder ".
