Black on White - _TNY_0424
Here is a female common mormon (Papilio polytes romulus) where romulus indicates it is in the "base" colour form which looks like the males.
There are several other colour forms (though only for the females) that mimic other, unpalatable species.
The flower it is resting on is the ever popular peace lily (Spathiphyllum wallisii), also known as the white sails (for obvious reasons).
