This yellow gorgon or Sickle wing, is one special Papilionid. The latin for yellow gorgon is Maendrusa payeni or Dabasa payeni. This Papilionid's brown mimicking the Nymphalid is quite rare in this family. The gorgon found sipping on Air Mata Pengantin Flower (This flower direct translation literally means Bride's Tears Flower).

We found a new member to our butterfly park.  On  the 10th of February 2008, this striking orange colored hesperiid seen sipping on murraya flowers.  Pintara pinwilli is the latin name for the striking hesperiid. With the flourish rainy season, we hope we can find many more new species in our park.
