Hello again. Back from another short trip, this time from Sabah. For anyone intending to visit the region, I highly recommend visiting Mahua Waterfall. It's easily accessible, has a great puddling spot at the carpark, a nice chalet to stay at, and overall pretty good butterfly diversity. I'll save the best find for last...but first..
I'll start this thread off by posting some pictures of my target species this trip. Because I didn't have too many days here, and it wasn't peak butterfly season, I set my expectations pretty low. I wanted some endemics, but I also didn't want to expect too much. Graphium (Pathysa) stratiotes seemed like a perfect candidate to hunt, since the genus is notoriously fond of puddling, and I figured if nothing else would show up, at least these guys would.
