Rayetta’s Butterflies - Species #81 Documented for CB

Well now. The new butterfly species are not exactly coming thick and fast. Yet they are temporarily getting bigger.

This morning I was out with Crumby watching him kill the camera batteries on turtle beetles or whatever. Give me that camera Crumby! Correct. I suddenly espied this beautiful butterfly, but Crumby had the camera. I had to actually take the camera away from Crumby before I could get this one picture. You see, the flash batteries were almost exhausted from terrapin beetle misfires.

The common name of the newest documented CB butterfly is two-tailed swallowtail. That's two tails per rear wing, four total, thus multicaudata.
