Faunis ( Inglês )

fornecido por wikipedia EN

Faunis is a genus of Asian butterflies in the family Nymphalidae. They are among the butterflies commonly known as fauns. They are relatively small-sized amathusiins, subtly colored in soft browns and violets, and range from China to the Philippines and Sulawesi.

Larvae are found on Musa, Smilax, and Pandanus host plants.[1]

Many forms, whether species or subspecies, are restricted to islands and are probably vulnerable.[2]
