The common straight swift (Parnara guttata) is found across Japan, where it is a much-loved insect. While moths usually open their wings when resting and most butterflies keep theirs closed, the common straight swift sometimes rests with its wings open to absorb warmth from the sun. This behavior allowed me to see that its back is green (scroll down). You can also scroll down to see an ant carrying a dead common straight swift.
The butterfly's Japanese name is "
ichimonji seseri," which translates to "straight-line skipper" due to the white spots aligned on its wings. In contrast, the
small branded swift (Pelopidas mathias), which features white spots arranged in a circle, is called "
chabane seseri" in Japanese, translating to "brown-wing skipper."
Personally, I really love common straight swifts because of their cute, squirrel-like eyes.

イチモンジセセリです。全国で見られます。蝶は休むとき羽を閉じ、蛾は閉じると言いますが、イチモンジセセリ（一文字挵）は蝶なのに時々羽を広げたまま休みます。太陽からの熱を吸収するためとも言われています。おかげで背中が緑色をしていることを知りました。
目がリスに似てませんか。とっても可愛いです。
