歡迎看畫賞蝶
Butterfly-watching exhibit

在浪花中熱舞的鳳蝶
Papilio dancing in the ocean waves

這些蝴蝶的後翅都有白斑,連起來就像是翻滾的浪花,
其中一隻蝴蝶的後翅外緣有一排紅色弦月紋,
尾突特別寬大,有兩條翅脈,就是寬尾鳳蝶,

牠是台灣的國蝶,看出來了嗎?
There are white spots on the hindwings of these butterflies.
One of the them has a row of red crescents on the edge of its hindwings,
as well as a broad tail with two veins. That is the broad-tailed swallowtail
(Agehana maraho)—the national butterfly of Taiwan. Do you see it?

有些沒有標示蝴蝶性別,
因為雌雄相似,或是圖片裡的性徵不明顯

Note
Some butterflies are not marked to indicate their genders,
because males and females look similar,
or because their sexual features are note apparent in the picture.

The answer is available
on the website of the Life Science Museum of Academia Sinica, Taiwan.
