The Latin name for this brightly colored butterfly is Kaniska canace.
Ruri Tateha (ルリタテハ) is what it's called in Japan.
This photo was taken along HWY 104 as, I was walking to the Kin Dam.
These are some tricky characters to find with a camera.
When they close their wings, they resemble a dead leaf.
So, I call them Master of Disguise butterflies.
