    Animal India - Common Crow Butterfly - Euploea Core

    The Common Crow (Euploea core) butterfly belongs to the Crows and Tigers subfamily Danainae, within the tribe Danaini, and is found from South Asia to Australia. It is a medium-sized butterfly, glossy-black in color, with a wingspan of 85-95 mm (3.3-3.7 in), featuring rows of white spots along the margins of its wings. This species, as caterpillars, sequesters toxins from its food plant, which are then passed on from the larva to the pupa and finally to the adult. The Common Crow butterfly exhibits bold behavior while feeding, spending extended periods of time at each bunch of flowers. A Common Crow butterfly was observed sitting on a lemon leaf in the morning at Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on 06/03/2023.(Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)
