Anthanassa drusilla, commonly known as the Orange-patched Crescent, is a small but striking butterfly in the family Nymphalidae. This species is found in Mexico, Central America, and parts of South America, typically inhabiting open areas, forest edges, and disturbed habitats. Adults are often seen perching low on vegetation, basking in the sun, or visiting flowers for nectar. They may also feed on rotting fruit or mineral-rich moisture.
