Spicebush Swallowtail (Papilio troilus)
This beautiful black bodied swallowtail is black with shiny blue or green wings. It has blue between two rows of orange spots on the underside of the hind wings and the colors on the upper side of the hind wings have one row of white spots.
The Spicebush feeds on Nectar from Japanese honeysuckle, jewelweed, thistles, milkweed, azalea, dogbane, lantana, mimosa, and sweet pepperbush. Their habitats are deciduous woodlands, fields, roadsides, yards, pine barrens, wooded swamps, and parks. The caterpillars look like small snakes, having large eyespots; they hide in folded leaves during the day and come out to feed in the evenings. These butterflies are a pleasure to watch and a welcome visitor to any garden.
