Description:
Junonia goudotii, sometimes also called the Malagasy Chocolate Pansy, is only found on Madagascar, the Comoros and Mauritius.
Dr. David Lees from the Department of Zoology of the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom, helped me identify this species.
I met David in Madagascar in January 2014 during his research work in Andasibe-Mantadia NP and had the pleasure to spent a few days together.
David has extensive field research experience in Madagascar and is considered the leading expert on Madagascar butterflies.
