Graphium nomius (Spot Swordtail)

Synonyms: Pathysa nomius hainana

Wikipedia Abstract

Graphium nomius, the spot swordtail, is a beautiful butterfly found in South and Southeast Asia that belongs to the swallowtail family. One of the grandest sights is a host of spot swordtails mud-puddling or swarming around a flowering forest tree. The spot swordtail gets its name from the beautiful line of distinct white spots along the margin of its wings.
