Possible Female Eastern Tiger Swallowtail? - Papilio glaucus - Female
Danville/garden, Hendricks County, Indiana, USA
July 21, 2010
Size: about 1 1/4 inch long
I saw this butterfly today in the garden with Eastern Tiger Swallowtails, and thought it may be the female form of the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail as it looks different than the Black Swallowtail.
