i prefer the 2nd shot because the 1st one has got some flaws... a fair amount off CA is present on the wings and the white looks a tad over expose

1st shot is excellent, just that the white areas on the wing a tad bit overexposed. If can get the exposure and background of the 2nd pic in the first pic, it will be a great shot.

Yes it is. Did you shoot it inside the Fragile Forest enclosure? The butterflies are also found flying within the zoo premises. You've shot a female of the species Knight (Lebadea martha). Males have a distinct white wingtip. Those shots that you took are typical of the female.

Yup. All 3 shots are of the same species. The last one is just old and tattered.
