"Tithorea harmonia" Tithorea Harmonia Tiger
I love the orange veins, the white dots and dashes on the wings of this tiger butterfly. And the twisting, curling filaments of this glorious red flower, nothing fussy or stuffy but a common median plant here in South Florida.
Tithoria are large butterflies which fly in sunny glades where they are easily confused with Heliconius such as ismenius, numata or hecale. The easiest way to distinguish Tithorea from their mimics is to examine the antennae. Tithorea antennae are gradually tapered, cream colored and drooping.
Tithorea harmonia is one of the most common and widespread of the toxic "tiger" species found from Mexico to the southern Amazon. There are 26 named subspecies.

Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Arthropoda
Class: Insecta
Order: Lepidoptera
Superfamily: Papilionoidea
Family: Nymphalidae
Subfamily: Danainae
Tribe: Ithomiini
Subtribe: Tithoreina
Genus: Tithorea Doubleday, 1847
Species: T. harmonia (Cramer, 1777)
Subspecies: T. h. pseudethra Butler, 1873
Trinomial name: Tithorea harmonia pseudethra
the Cream-spotted tigerwing, Tithorea tarricina, from Central and South America. This species is toxic, with distinct markings to let predators know not to eat them. They share similar markings with other species that are also toxic. Their pupae are a striking gold color
You’ll see these butterflies in our exhibit with Golden longwings, which resemble them closely, as well as several other species in the same family sunbathing on foliage together.

Tithorea harmonia hat eine Flügelspannweite von etwa 70 Millimetern. Dieser giftige „Tiger“-Schmetterling hat das übliche Muster aus schwarzen Flügeln mit leuchtend orangefarbenen Bändern. Die Vorderflügel haben eine schwarze Spitze. Auch die Antennen sind orange. Larven ernähren sich von Prestonia- Arten.
Tithorea are large butterflies. They often fly in sunny glades where they can easily be confused with Heliconius ismenius, numata or hecale. The easiest way to distinguish Tithorea from their mimics is to examine the antennae and legs.
Tithorea antennae are very gradually tapered, cream in color, and drooping. In Pieridae they are parallel along the stalk, with a strongly clubbed tip. Notice the long tapering golden antennae of this tiger-like Tithoria harmonia.
Also look at their legs. Ithomiines, Heliconiines and Nymphalines (which includes Tithoria harmonia) have only 2 pairs of functioning legs. In the Ithomiines these are long, giving the impression of a butterfly on stilts. Papilionidae and Pieridae have 3 pairs of functioning legs.

The Harmonia Tiger-wing or Harmonia Tiger (Tithorea harmonia) is a species of butterflies belonging to the Nymphalidae family. Tithorea harmonia has a wingspan reaching about 70 m (2.8 in). This toxic "tiger" butterfly has the usual pattern of black wings with bright orange bands. The forewings have a black tip and the antennae are orange. Larvae feed on Prestonia species. Tithorea are large butterflies. They often fly in sunny glades where they can easily be confused with Heliconius species such as ismenius, numata or hecale.
The easiest way to distinguish Tithorea from their mimics is to examine the antennae and legs. Tithorea antennae are very gradually tapered, drooping and cream in color. In Pieridae they are parallel along the stalk, with a strongly clubbed tip, while in Papilionidae the tip is clubbed and recurved. Ithomiines, Heliconiines and Nymphalines have only 2 pairs of functioning legs. In the Ithomiines these are long, giving the impression of a butterfly on stilts. Papilionidae and Pieridae have 3 pairs of functioning legs. Tithorea harmonia is one of the commonest and most widespread of the toxic "tiger" species, found from Mexico to the southern Amazon. There are 26 named subspecies.
