Subject: [ButterflyIndia] foreplay?
Photographed this pair of darts (ID please) at Yeoor. Looks like a mating
pair & I presume the one in the rear is the male. The front one used to take
off everynow & then with the rear one closely in tow. They finally flew off
into thick shrub which was inaccessible for me.
The male (?) was stroking the female (?) with its proboscis, legs & head. The
female occasionally responded by arching its abdomen.
Hope this is a normal behaviour?
cheers.
