These are some of the butterflies and a moth spotted during the week!
Have not put a name to all of them as yet.....

A tiny, attractive 'black-and-white' butterfly on the muddy trail.
Caleta roxus pothus, the Straight Pierrot, of the Lycaeninae family.

Mycalesis mineus, the White-Banded Bush Brown, came visiting and was found perched on the balcony on one of the days when I got home.
A white moth (?) hidden among the grasses.
Could this be of the Arhopala species? A Metallic Oakblue?
Or the Virachola species? The Indigo Flash?
I still think it's neither of them!

Papilio helenus, the Red Helen, found in Malaysia only.
Certainly hope those (Japanese) butterfly catchers that I have been bumping into don't catch these to 'extinction' in Langkawi.
I certainly feel it is wrong of them to come here for a holiday with the main objective of catching our butterflies.
Very wrong indeed.
LEAVE OUR BUTTERFLIES ALONE !!!
