Those are the ones I saw at my friends
place.
According to him they are very common in the RP
I was able to take about 20, but I stopped taking males
which are far more numerous.
They look absolutely identical to species # 2 except they have wings
See comparison
Even the eggs look identical
I found them in the airy zone between the jungle and the beach.
The area seemed to be more important than the food plant
I am looking forward for someone who knows to compare those two and
find out what the story is. |

adult female. Can you see the nylon
kind of substance they secret? Species
# 2 and Species #11 does that as well
