The Butterfly Effect-1

This butterfly is called the Common Rose butterfly, its Scientific Name is Pachliopta aristolochiae. The Common Rose can be found across most parts of Asia. It is often seen in parks and gardens and is one of the commonest swallowtails in India.
The larvae of the Common rose feed on the poisonous creepers and these toxins are stored in their bodies to make the adult butterflies inedible for the predators.
