Brilliant, especially with the Lantana in the background.

Ed, I based the name on Evi Buckner's image:
http://www.npwrc.usgs.gov/resource/distr/lepid/bflyusa/usa/703.htm
which may be incorrect, but he does list it as a "black form"..
and thanks for the kind words.. Blade

I'd say it's a Pipevine Swallowtail - but regardless, it's a great shot. Here's an Eastern Tigertail -http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/46862607
