Mimic Tiger on Peregrina #3181894
Description
Back lighted butterfly, a Common Mime, Chilasa clytia clytia, foraging on a peregrina cluster early in the morning. The butterfly mimics the distasteful Danainae species for protection against predators. When it flutters around flowers, feeding, it mimics the slow and graceful flight of the Blue Glassy Tiger and Dark Glassy Tiger to fool predators into thinking that it is one of the distasteful species.
