Zebra Longwing Chrysalis (Heliconius charithonia)

The Zebra Longwing or Zebra Heliconian is a species of butterfly belonging to the subfamily Heliconiinae of the Nymphalidae. The boldly striped black and white wing pattern is aposematic, warning off predators.This one I bred myself this year (2014)
