EIRA Papilio nephelus Specimen Frame

Product Details

Species: Broad-banded Peacock / Broad-banded Swallowtail (Papilio nephelus)

Morphological Characteristics:

The Papilio nephelusfeatures broad wings with a classic swallowtail shape, characterized by its robust body and strong flight capability.

The wings are predominantly deep black, providing a dramatic backdrop for its distinctive markings.

The most striking feature is the presence of large, broad white or pale yellow bands across the hindwings, which contrast sharply with the dark base color.

Unlike some other swallowtails, this specimen lacks elongated tail projections (a tailless form), giving it a clean, rounded silhouette.

The underside of the wings is typically marked with subtle red and blue submarginal spots, adding a touch of iridescence when viewed from different angles.
