On Sunday we went to our friends house to lunch, they are close friends and we frequently spend time together. In the afternoon we were all chating when this butterfly went flying in their living room.
It was the first time I saw this species, white with black stripes, it looks like a zebra! This butterfly is smaller than the ones I usually see in my garden.
Before it flying away I managed to took this photo of it.

what constitutes a new species? most folks have never seen a coelacanth, but you can hardly call them new…
Wow! It’s so cool looking!!
Woow, it looks amazing. I’ve never seen one of its kind
Moths are a lot more common than butterflies, and so many species. Have not seen this one.
Here are a couple of links about the zebra butterfly:
