Since the GFs have stripped my only passiflora vine the remaining caterpillars ended up pupating. They were small chrysalides compared to the ones from the earlier in the season. This little one eclosed yesterday. It's the tiniest Gulf Fritillary I've seen. It's barely 1.25 inches from end to hind wing tip. Saw this little beauty nectaring from my duranta this morning. Compared to the other GFs flying around it this was looked sooooo tiny and cute :o)

Mind you...that didn't stop this little thing from chasing other butterflies away either!
