I also managed to get some decent snaps of Butterflies on my trip to Brazil.

First the ones from Brasilia:Yellow Angled-Sulphur Anteos maerula (Fabricius, [1775])

White peacock Anartia jatrophae (Linnaeus, [1763])

Longtail Codatractus aminias (Hewitson, [1867])

Not Identified as yet...

Phlegia Metalmark Stalachtis phlegia (Cramer, [1779])

Longtail Codatractus aminias (Hewitson, [1867])

Mexican Fritillary Euptoieta hegesia (Cramer, [1779])

I'm not sure of this one but I think its a Monarch Danaus plexippus (Linnaeus, [1758])

And a couple from Rio de Janeiro:
