The Butterflies Alive Butterfly Garden that is part of The Living Desert (what sort of passes for a zoo around here), in Palm Desert, CA. To be fair to them, I looked through other pictures that my brother took on an earlier trip there (the year before), and he had one of what clearly really was a Spicebush. So I imagine that they couldn't get the Spicebush this last year, and the Pipevine was substituted, or something like that, and they just neglected to update their hand-out.
Oh, I googled both kinds, after you told me about the problem, so I have looked at several pictures. Interesting that with some species, the sex can make a significant difference. No mention of that in the booklet. *snorts* Just one image for each kind. I never got to see the undersides of the wings on the Pipevine, so I didn't know that it even had the seven round orange spots, or should have.
*blinks* Interesting. I was going by the booklet (with pictures) that they handed out at the butterfly garden to identify it. There was only one in the booklet with anything like this coloration, and I just used the name and scientific identification that the booklet claimed was correct for this one. The next time I go there, I will have to tell them that they may have their information wrong. Perhaps they accidentally ordered the wrong kind of chrysalis. Meh, I don't know if I have the energy to go through and rename all of this kind right now though. It may take me a while. Thank you for the information.
