This is my entry for the daily #monomad challenge
While hunting for insects yesterday I came across a species of the skipper butterfly family that I had never found before. He is Udaspes folus or also known as "grass demon". This small butterfly from the Hesperiidae family is slightly different from other types of skipper butterflies.
The difference is in terms of color, other skipper butterflies usually have one dominant color, such as yellow or brown overall. However, the Udaspes folus butterfly has a more attractive color combination. That is light brown with white on the belly to the wings.
Another difference is that I have never found this "grass demon" butterfly in rural bushes, but I found it in a forest far from residential areas. And also, in my opinion, this butterfly is less wild than other types of skipper butterflies. This can be seen in some of the photos that I have uploaded below if this butterfly moves very quickly from one grass to another.
