Hi, I did not see any other Hesperiids around their territory, although we did come across an Indian Skipper in the meadows - quite far from where the Water Snow Flats were seen.
Thanks, Aniruddha ________________________________ From: kalesh s <[email protected]> To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, 10 October 2011 9:43 PM Subject: Re: [ButterflyIndia] Water Snow Flat, Korigad Good observation and great way of reporting....btw did miss any Indian Dartlets sharing its territory? best wishes Dr.Kalesh.S Thiruvananthapuram Phone: Mob:9447044498; Res: 0471-2444982 EMAIL: [email protected] My Blog: http://theskippersofkerala.blogspot.com/ ________________________________ From: ani d <[email protected]> To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, 9 October 2011 12:57 PM Subject: [ButterflyIndia] Water Snow Flat, Korigad Hi all, Visited Korigad on October 8th 2011. Was fortunate to have seen 4 individuals of Water Snow Flat - a first record for me, and secured a record photograph of one resting under the leaf. Writing in to keep it on the record for the region. Photo info: Pic name: Water Snow Flat Species name: Tagiades litigiosa Loc: Korigad, Pune DistrictPhotographer: Aniruddha Dhamorikar Remarks: Seen basking on top of leaves at the height of a meter and a half. Very skittish, and not tolerant to closer approach. All the individuals were seen basking near a Karvy patch, and showed the behaviour of territorial fight. One individual (photographed) was seen resting under the leaf at around 1 PM. Regards,Aniruddha -- Enjoy
