Common Mormon butterfly
The Common Mormon (Papilio polytes) is a common species of swallowtail butterfly widely distributed across Asia
The interesting fact about the name of Common mormon is that the name is an allusion to the polygamy formerly practiced by members of the Mormon sect in America as this species of butterfly has three different varieties of females.
Thanks for your visit.
