Leafwing Butterfly - Coenophlebia archidona

THE SCIENCE:

Coenophlebia archidona, a species of leafwing butterfly, is a member of the family Nymphalidae. Formerly a part of the genus Anaea, it’s now in its own monotypic genus, Coenophlebia. Like those of other butterflies within the genus Anaea, C. archidona’s wings serve as strong camouflage. Their undersides mimic bug-eaten dead leaves. Most often seen feeding on rotted vegetation on the forest floor, it is rarely seen in flight. Females are rarely seen in the wild at all.

THE STORY:

One of our masters of camouflage! Order a specimen today. Our all-natural, intact specimens (no fake parts here!) are all of first-rate quality, delicately prepared, mounted, and framed with double-glass glazing in our very own fabrication studio in Upstate New York. We model our frames from solid fine ashwood, and they’re available in both a matte-black, and a natural finish.

Our framed insects are made-to-order. Please allow up to two weeks for your order to be completed. If you need your order sooner than this, please contact us at 212-343-1114 x401 or fabrication@theevolutionstore.com and we will do our best to accommodate you!
