Cecelia's second picture is a Buckeye but I'm going to guess she gets the Tropical Buckeye and not the Common Buckeye we see in the U.S. There's also a Mangrove Buckeye in Florida, but I haven't been hanging out in the mangroves lately so that's one I haven't seen. I just Googled "Argentina Buckeye butterfly" and apparently they get both the Tropical and Mangrove Buckeyes. So Cecelia, were you hanging out near any mangroves? Also, I think it's cool that it's such a small world we can share butterflies even though we are so far apart.
