Female Common Mormon Butterfly (Papilio polytes)

Female Common Mormon Butterfly (Papilio polytes)
Photographed at the Devonian Botanic Gardens tropical and butterfly house in Devon, Alberta, Canada. The id was provided by Lepphotos - thanks very much. "Papilio polytes is a common species of swallowtail butterfly widely distributed across Asia. This butterfly is known for the mimicry displayed by the numerous forms of its females which mimic inedible Red-bodied Swallowtails, such as the Common Rose and the Crimson Rose."
