42 Siproeta stelenes (Malachite)

Nymphalidae - Wingspan: ~100mm.

There were butterflies present around the area of the track, but often they were very active, not settling anywhere. This is one exception resting high in bushes at the side of the track. The underside of this pretty, large, butterfly reflects the top patterns, although they are deeper shaded and more contrasted than those seen here.
