[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Scientific name: Philaethria dido
Family: Nymphalidae.
Subfamily: Heliconinae.
Range: It occurs from Mexico to Argentina.

The Scarce Bamboo Page belongs to a group of almost identical species. This butterfly is characterized by its beautiful, bright green markings and dark brown margins. This butterfly flies fast and agile, often in a zigzag patch across the Canopy plants. Habitat: it occurs from sea level to 1,200 meters elevation on both sloths, in association with rain forest habitats. The adults seem to be uncommon, because they fly above the forest Canopy. The females are spotted more often because they descend to lay their eggs at midday along the forest edges or openings in the forest.
