    Non-Mimic Look-Alike Butterfly Pair
    I am looking to find a pair of similar-looking butterflies that evolved in distant parts of the world (the more beautiful the better).

    I can only seem to find examples of convergent butterfly evolution in the form of mimics from the same region.

    Any leads would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

    The closest I can think of are the Plain Tiger butterfly from Africa and the American Monarch. The plain Tiger is sometimes called the African Monarch. The Plain Tiger is on the left.
