Upper side wings of the Eurema species or Grass Yellow butterfly Location : Cempedak Hill, Zone G |
Today I was exceptionally lucky to have photographed a Grass Yellow butterfly just out of its pupa. Earlier on it must have broken the transparent covering of the pupa and slowly moved out of the sac. I would imagine that the force of the wings could have broken the ultra thin sac covering of the pupa (chrysalis) and by pull of gravity enabled it to move out of the sac. Just out of the pupa or chrysalis this small butterfly species displayed a graphic pattern of perfect symmetry, a wonder of nature.
