Scientific Name: Charaxes Eupale
Common Name: Living Leaf
Distribution: African Region
Description: A very distinctively coloured, green butterfly, which must be very hard to find when at rest in the trees as they would be all but invisible in amongst the foliage. The female is larger, more rounded and the markings are far less defined than on the males.
   
Scientific Name: Papilio Dardanus
Common Name: African Mocker Swallowtail
Distribution: African Region
Description: This butterfly represents one of the most spectacular and puzzling cases of evolution in the animal world. Papilio dardanus is broadly distributed throughout sub-Saharan Africa. The males of dardanus look identical across this entire range, but the females occur as at least 14 distinct morphs.
