Fine shot Karel. If it weren't for the similar bodies, I wouldn't have thought these were of the same species.

This is a crimson-patched longwing on the right (Heliconius erato) and a different species on the left (TBD later).

What a party. :-) Thanks for ID. The colors are so different that it was wierd to see them together. It looks like they don't care. Let's have a fun and will see later..

The butterfly on the left is a South American butterfly, whereas the erato is Southern US into Brazil. I could not find any references on South American b'flies...
