Borboleta junonia evarete mangrove buckeye
Junonia evarete, the Mangrove buckeye, West Indian buckeye or tropical buckeye, is a neotropical nymphalid butterfly found from Florida and the Caribbean, Mexico, Central America, to tropical and subtropical South America. The type locality is Surinam, and numerous subspecies have been described. The synonymy is extensive, and older literature must be used with caution. The butterfly is easily confused with Junonia genoveva, which is also known as the mangrove buckeye.
