Mauritius observations 1 Year ago Karma: 3
Just a quick post with some records from Mauritius (I visited in early January 2011) My identification of these butterflies is based on a list in the publication "The Butterflies of Mauritius" by Davis and Barnes, 1991.

Junonia rhadama - fairly common, amazing electric blue, chooses perching spots that tie in with its camouflaged underside





Euploea euphon - fairly common



Neptis frobenia - only observed at the Black River Gorges NP



Henotesia narcissus - only observed at Bras d'Eau forest
