Abstract

The article presents information on the butterflies at the Cape York Peninsula's Iron Range National Park (NP) in Queensland. The butterfly Graphium agamemnon can be found in rainforest sometimes resting on flowers to feed daintily, wings vibrating in the sunlight. The Monarch Danaus plexippus butterfly was crowned with its common name because of its size. Euploea core species is also called the oleander butterfly, for its tendency to lay eggs on the underside of oleander leaves.
