Common evening brown (Melanitis leda)

Melanitis leda Linnaeus, 1758

Description
English: Melanitis leda, Common evening brown, is a common species of butterfly found flying at dusk. During the daytime they rest in the undergrowth. When disturbed, they fly a little and drop suddenly into the undergrowth and perch a little askew and slanting, to mimic a dead leaf casually fallen into the ground.

This is wet season form. Ref: doi:10.1111/j.1095-8312.1984.tb00795.x

They are found in Africa, South Asia and South-east Asia extending to parts of Australia.
Español: Melanitis leda es una especie de mariposa que suele ser activa al atardecer. Esta es la forma que adopta en la estación húmeda.
