Since I started to look at butterflies I intended to find the Japanese Emperor. I thought I had seen it once during a hike at Mt Kuju, about 5 years ago, but realized later it was a different species, the Kurokomurasaki. This time I got it right:
Great Purple Emperor, オオムラサキ Sasakia charonda
Several gathered at a point high in a tree, together with wasps and beetles.
Some flowers of Kumamoto
Silene sp. Fushigurosenno, フシグロセンノウ Silene miqueliana
Japanese Toad Lily, ヤマホトトギス Tricyrtis macropoda
Hanashinobu, ハナシノブ (Phlox family) Polemonium kiushianum
Kyushu Speedwell, ヒロバトラノオ Veronica kiusiana
