Australian spotted crow butterfly

NB: image has been turned for greater detail. Butterfly was head-up, hanging vertically.

 

This is specifically Euploea core ssp. corinna, the Australian common crow.

 

Their wings often appear dark, almost solid black - but here at rest, in the bright sunshine, the orange/brown tones came through.

 

Wingspan around 9 cm.
