A Zebra Long Wing Butterfly perched on a yellow Marigold. Long black wings with distinctive thin yellow bands - combined with slow, graceful flight - characterize the zebra longwing Heliconius charitonius. It has a wide range of habitats, including hardwood hammocks, thickets, and gardens. The zebra longwing is found throughout the state of Florida, although it is more common in south Florida, particularly in the Everglades National Park. In 1996 the state legislature designated the zebra longwing as the official state butterfly. |
