Hi everyone, Happy New Year!
I'd like to share some really poor photos of a butterfly (sorry really low light conditions) that I clicked at the end of the year outside India. It was clicked at the *Bukit Nanas Forest Reserve* in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The reason I'm sharing it here is because we get the same species in our North-Eastern states that border Myanmar. The butterfly is a *Harlequin* *(Taxila haquinus)*. It is a small but striking butterfly from the family *Riodinidae* and is found from North-East India all the way to South Java. I also understand it is the only species in the genus *Taxila*. You can see some photos of the same species clicked within Indian borders on the Indian Foundation for Butterflies website @ http://www.ifoundbutterflies.org/190-taxila/taxila-haquinus Best regards, Sahil __________________________ Sahil Abdul Latheef +91 (0) 99308 76770 [email protected] Twitter @sahillatheef http://travellingsahil.blogspot.com/ -- Enjoy
