There is an Orange Julia but the correct spelling of its scientific name is 
Dryas iulia.

I visited the zoo butterfly house, and saw some butterflies which the zoo guide 
called an Orange Julia .
I do not think this is accurate, and would like some clarification. One bit of 
trivia- the butterflies prefer
orange Gatorade soaked fruit over other flavors of Gatorade. Interesting 
exhibit containing  Koi pond, turtle,
and hatching butterflies with blloming plants.
