27-5-2023 TABIN RESERVE, BORNEO - HORSFIELD'S BARON BUTTERFLY (MALE) (Tanaecia iapis)
The Horsfield's Baron is relatively common in Singapore. They are mainly found in the nature reserves, but at times adults can be seen flying in public parks and wastelands where the host plants are growing in abundance. Both sexes have the habit of resting on perches with wings open. The male exhibits territorial behaviour of chasing intruders in the vicinity of its perch. On rare occasions, the male have been observed to puddle on damp ground.
