Papilio Anactus

Papilio anactus, commonly known as the Dainty Swallowtail, Dingy Swallowtail or Small Citrus Butterfly is a medium sized butterfly from the family Papilionidae, that is endemic to Australia.

For protection against predators, this non-poisonous butterfly mimics the poisonous male Cressida cressida, another swallowtail butterfly that obtains its toxic properties through its hostplant, the Dutchman's Pipe.
