It was not the right season for butterflies, but I saw quite a few. Exciting to see new species, as in new to me. Are they also called lifers? Thanks to iNaturalist I have some names - even in Japanese!
Plain Tiger Butterfly, カバマダラ
Painted Jezebel , ベニモンカザリシロチョウ
ヤエヤマシロチョウ · Striped Albatross
Purple Sapphire
Female Blue Pansy, アオタテハモドキ I didn't see a male.
Peacock Pansy, タテハモドキ
Lemon Migrant , ウスキシロチョウ There seem to be many forms
Caper White. I have some doubts about the name (white???) but this is what iNat came up with.
Commander , チャイロイチモンジ
Northern Argus
Himalayan Jester. It quickly disappeared in the dense bush and I never saw it's upper wings 😞
Grey Pansy, アトリテスタテハモドキ Lots of these! J named it the Sarong butterfly
Mycalesis sudra Bushbrown, slightly different from the Chinese Bushbrown that we see here.
Baby Fivering. Another one that looks familiar, but isn't the same
Tawny Coster , ヘリグロホソチョウ
Psyche , クロテンシロチョウ
Common Faun, look at that sweet face!
Plains Cupid, クロマダラソテツシジミ - Same as ours!
