Gulf Fritillary Butterfly - a photo on Flickriver

Gulf Fritillary Butterfly

            Agraulis vanillae (Linnaeus)

Don’t let the name fool you. You can see this beautiful butterfly all across Texas, not simply along the Gulf coast. While the females can be almost burnt orange at times, usually both males and females are a bright orange. This guy was on my Marigolds.

The patterns on the underside of the wings are what makes this butterfly stand out from the rest. Elongated silver cell spots dazzle when they catch the sun just right.
