Description
The Indian leafwing, or Malayan leafwing, is a species of brush-footed butterfly of the genus Kallima. Despite its names, it is not found in India or Malaysia, but is endemic to Java and Sumatra. This one is a beautiful and brilliant blue and yellow but when its wings are folded, it looks like a dead leaf. Then it’s camouflage against anything that might want to have a bite.
