| Common crow butterfly (Euploea core) is a common butterfly found in South Asia to Australia. In India it is also sometimes referred to as the common Indian crow, and in Australia as the Australian crow. It belongs to the crows and tigers subfamily Danainae. Itâs a glossy-black, medium-sized butterfly with rows of white spots on the margins of its wings. Due to its unpalatability it is usually observed gliding through the air with a minimum of effort. As caterpillars, this species sequesters toxins from its food plant which are passed on from larva to pupa to the adult. The crows are inedible and thus mimicked by other Indian butterflies. |
