12 Butterflies from Pacific Islands H66cm
€3,720.0012 magnificent bird-winged butterflies in a capsule globe.

Islands where their forests diminish year after year under the influence of men.
This is why this protected species will be delivered with a CITES.
Only the males have these bright colors, the females are even larger, but brown in color.
They are so remarkable that our specimens now come from a farm in Indonesia.
