This is a sexually dimorphic butterfly, meaning the male and female butterfly have different physical appearance. The male has a broad sky blue marginal across the wings. The female on the other hand has a pale ochreous brown. I have also chanced upon a female laying egg on the tip of the leave. It landed on the leave with its back facing the tip of the leave and moved backwardand laid the egg on the tip of the leave with accuracy and precision. Its caterpillar is also very different from the other caterpillar. I like the sky blue of the male butterfly a lot as I have not seen such beautiful butterfly before. Hope you will like it.
