Mulund, Mumbai

S Common Castor
S Great Eggfly
S Red Pierrot
S Western Striped Albatross (see photo below)
S Common Emigrant
F Various Lycaenids



Today I realized that the Albatross species commonly seen in my area is Appias libythea (Western Striped Albatross) and not Appias albina (Common Albatross). Going forward, I shall identify all Albatrosses seen in this area as libythea unless I can see one up close and find it to be albina
