Today's 's "5" Star Photo comes from the Asian and South Pacific. However, it has now spread throughout most of the tropical climates of the world. It is a Citrus Butterfly, aptly named because it prefers cultivated lime and other citrus trees. Although beautiful, it is considered a "pest" and an invasive species. It's aggressive nature, strong flight, and continual development of agriculture in the tropics has lead to its expansion. It is one of the few Swallowtail butterflies that doesn't have a prominent tail.
