The Red Spotted Jezebel (Delias aglaia) is a striking butterfly known for its vibrant and contrasting coloration.

The upper side of the forewings is predominantly black with a white band, which appears grey in males and cream in females .

The upper surface of the wings shows a silver-grey colour, with black margins and a row of white spots.

The eggs are laid in clusters, and the caterpillars exhibit gregarious behaviour in their early stages, feeding together on mistletoe leaves during the day.

The pupae, or cocoons, have a distinctive appearance, resembling bird droppings, which likely serves as a protective camouflage against predators [6].

The Red Spotted Jezebel thrives in a wide range of habitats where mistletoe plants are present.

Two seasonal forms A. linophylla, A. miquelii, A. preissii, A. quandang, E. strictus, Santalum acuminatum, S. lancelolatum, S. spicatum .
