goatweed butterfly - Anaea andria Scudder common name: goatweed butterfly, goatweed emperor, goatweed leafwing Scudder (Insecta: Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Charaxinae) The goatweed butterfly is an attractive, fascinating and widespread species that is not often observed by the general public because of its cryptic coloration and somewhat spotty distribution within its range. Both larvae and adults are cryptically colored. Adults play dead when handled. This species provides dramatic examples of adaptive coloration and behavior to escape predators in both the larval and adult stages.
