April 12, 2024

I am known as Monk Skipper
In Florida I was introduced
I am native to Cuba
I'm not good at scuba
I lay eggs on Palm trees to reproduce.

Note: I have previously written about this butterfly on my blog, but as noted in the source, it has since undergone a taxonomic change from Asbolis capucinus.

Location: WW Ranch Road, SSRPSP
