Zebras don't have that stripe down their back so I'm going to say I think it's a Julia. It's been a while since we had any at the museum, but that does look like them. Especially the head; don't know how to describe it, but the head looks right.

Came home from the museum today to find this Orange-Barred Sulphur laying eggs! Also, I was talking with my boss at the museum about how we haven't seen any Monarch cats in weeks. The ones at the museum got this white fungus that covered their entire bodies; my boss had never seen anything like it before. Well, today I found four Monarch cats (all healthy). Three of them were on the Giant Milkweed that was recently planted so that was exciting! I also let some kids pet the Polydamas caterpillar which was fun. Of course, I had to show them the stinkhorns, LOL!
