A Real Mother's Day Gifts, Framed Blue Morpho Butterfly

This framed blue morpho butterfly is the famed Rhetenor cacica, known for his extra blue iridescence. Mounted in a black frame for those of you that are decorating your home and looking for something unique that will fit with your decor.

The Blue Morpho rhetenor butterflies are the true blue gems of the Neotropical Amazon Rainforest. They are the brightest of the blue morpho butterflies and are absolutely stunning. There are two sub species found under the Morpho rhetenor genus that are the Morpho rhetenor cacica and Morpho rhetenor helena. They was first described by Cramer in 1775.

What makes up their blue, iridescent shine is not the pigmentation of the scales on their wings, but rather the result of light diffraction where the light that hits the wings is altered upon reflection resulting in the brilliant blue hue we perceive with our eyes.

This is a piece from Ben the Butterfly Guy and has the following qualities:

≥ Each butterfly is spread entomologically and professionally preserved (we do not cut the
wings and glue them back on, use fake antennaes or fake bodies)

≥ 3" x 12" Black finished wood frame

≥ Our frames are not riker mounts nor shadow boxes, they are double-sided with crystal glass so you can see the front and backsides of each butterfly

≥ Each frame is tightly sealed with silicone

≥ Each order can be gift wrapped, include a message or detailed information on the
butterflies you are purchasing.

≥ If you have a special request or idea please feel free to contact me:

The Real Red and Blue Agrias Amydon Butterfly

This is the intricately patterned Agrias amydon mounted and framed in a Black display. A great gift for a butterfly enthusiast to add to their collection. Also a great piece for home decorating.

The Agrias butterflies are some of the most fascinating butterflies in the whole world, let alone the Amazon. One of their greatest physical characteristics is their vibrant red bands on the front of the wings. Then, it’s almost like having two beautiful butterflies because the backside of the wings are phenomenally patterned. This is one of the most amazing creatures in Amazon, but you really have to be able to see both sides to fully appreciate how awesome this butterfly is.

The stunning butterfly can be found in Colombia, Bolivia and every country in between that runs along the Amazon Basin. All Agrias spend most of their times at the higher levels of the forest canopies. There are many different forms claimed to be true new forms to drive up the value. I do not doubt that this magnificent butterfly is not capable of having many forms, in fact, there have been several documented cases of hybrid Agrias with Preponas. There is even a taxon called the Prepona sarumani which is a Prepona praenestre and Agrias claudina hybrid, WHOA!

5.5" x 6.5" Black frame with double pane glass front and back (see through). All frames are sealed and all butterflies are entomologically spread, dried and mounted.
