The Tailed Jay has apple-green spots of various sizes on a black background. Underneath, the same green spotting can be found against a purple-brown background, and additional red spots are featured on the hindwing. I found it just this late afternoon in vegetation plants, and I thought that would be easy for me to catch but soon after I got a few pictures, it took off and flew away. I knew it would be back standing on this plant, and I had to be ready to catch it up with my camera. DSLR helped me take its photos from a distance but unfortunately, it was there for a very short time which made me unable to take more photos of this beautiful winged insect. Actually, the swift-flying adults are not uncommon, and can be observed regularly in both nature reserves and urban parks and we often sighted visiting flowers such as ixora or lantana blossom. Its antennae, head, thorax and abdomen black, thorax above and the abdomen on the sides streaked with greenish grey; beneath: ochreous grey touched on the thorax with pink.
