Eastern Tiger Swallowtail (Papilio glaucus) -- Male
This species is sexually dimorphic, meaning the males and females do not look alike. In Arkansas we have dark-form females, though there are also yellow females. (See Butterflies and Moths of North America for more photos.)
Habitat: Deciduous broadleaf woods, forest edges, river valleys, parks, and suburbs.
Range: Eastern North America from Ontario south to Gulf coast, west to Colorado plains and central Texas.
