Description
This image is of a Zebra Longwing Butterfly which was designated as the official state butterfly of Florida in 1996. This beautiful butterfly can be found throughout Florida in hardwood hammocks, thickets, gardens, and particularly in the Everglades National Park. Its eggs are laid on passion vine leaves which contain toxins that are consumed by the caterpillars. This makes the adult butterflies poisonous to predators.
