Talk:Danaus chrysippus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Chrysalis Image

The image for the chrysalis very closely resembles the chrysalis of a Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus). Is there any chance that the image is mixed up?

A good observation. They are closely related species, but geographically separated. Monarch is not found in India. This is a photo of the Indian species. This photo was taken by Viren Vaz in Mumbai from caterpillars which he had grown to maturity. AshLin 02:56, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
