The Common Mormon Butterfly is native to South and Southeast Asia and Australasia. One of the swallowtail family, it has a wingspan of up to 100mm. The male is mainly black with some sandy scales and with white spots on the trailing edge of the forewing.
The female Common Mormon Butterfly looks different to the male and has several different forms, some of which mimic swallowtails such as the Common and Crimson Rose.
