Hello friends in TL,

A lacewing on a flower today - from Penang Butterfly farm.

Cethosia hypsea hypsina (Malay Lacewing)

Family Nymphalidae:

The Nymphalidae are members of the Superfamily Papilionoidea, the true butterflies. Worldwide in distribution, this family has approximately 4,700 species that are unevenly distributed. Coppers are especially dominant in north temperate regions, blues are richest in the Old World tropics and north temperate zones, and hairstreaks are particularly abundant in New World tropics. The adults are typically small to tiny and often brilliantly colored--iridescent blues, bright reds, and oranges. Adults of both sexes have three pairs of walking legs, though most males have fused segments in their front legs. Most adults visit flowers for nectar, but some harvesters feed on wooly aphid honeydew and some hairstreaks feed on aphid honeydew or bird droppings. Females lay single, sea urchin shaped eggs on host leaves or flower buds; the resulting caterpillars are typically slug-shaped. In many species, caterpillars depend on ants for protection, so caterpillars produce sugary secretions that are collected by the ants. Most species overwinter in either the egg or pupal stage.

Regards,
Jusni

beautiful butterfly !!
sharp picture

Jusni,

Good shot - beautiful butterfly. A little out of focus towards the back of the butterfly. The bard background is an excellent backdrop for such a colourful insect.

TFS!

Your macros are superb! I was at the Butterfly House at the Botanical garnens yesterday. it was lovely to see them all fluttering around.
The dark green blur of the BG really adds depth to this photo.
