More Costa Rica Butterflies for ID (1 Viewer)

Well-known member
I photographed these butterflies in Costa Rica about two weeks ago.

The first two are of a black/yellow/blue small butterfly at a local farm near Chachagua Rain Forest Lodge.

The second two are also at the same farm. This pair was flying around and landing together on various trees.

The third butterfly, a pink and black one, was at the Gardens of the Los Lagos Hotel near Arenal Volcano.
Any ID help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance..

I think you have the following :

#1/2 Aegina Numberwing Callicore lyca

#3/4 possibly a Variable Cracker Hamadryas feronia

#5 Variable Cattle-heart Parides erithalion
