It has transparent wings with a dark brown edge. Veins run through the wings, but they are almost transparent and the leaves on the other side can be seen. The margin of the forewing has a yellow spot and a small white spot. The thorax is greenish brown.
Ecology
In summer, it occurs in thickets and parks. They gather on mulberry trees and suck juice. Overwinter as eggs.
Habitat
Katakura Castle Ruins Park
I took a picture of the underside of the leaves of the Japanese iris in Katakura Castle Ruins Park. The green underfoot could be seen through the transparent wings. At first glance, it looks plain and you might miss it, but when you see it up close, it has beautiful wings.
