Details

Also known as the "mother of pearl butterfly", these beautiful Morphos are commonly found in the northern region of South America. The Morpho sulkowski acquired its nickname due to its iridescent, translucent wings that appear to change color when observed from different perspectives. This is a phenomenon that can only be fully appreciated when up-close.
