Author's comments:
Tengo el jardín lleno de estas hermosas mariposas gracias a que he plantado Aristolacchia triangularis; las he disfrutado en todos sus estados y he llegado a contar 60 pupas en simultáneo, mayormente en las paredes de casa. En la imagen están copulando sobre hoja de Fuma bravo (Solanum granuloso-leprosum); hembra arriba, macho abajo.
