Product Details

Species: Sangaris Red Glider / Sangaris Butterfly (Cymothoe sangaris)

Morphological Characteristics:

The Cymothoe sangarisis a masterpiece of African forest entomology, renowned for its breathtakingly vibrant coloration and unique wing shape.

The upperside of the male is a spectacular, uniform scarlet-red, with a subtle velvety texture that appears to glow. The edges of the wings are bordered by a thin, sharp black line, creating a stark and dramatic contrast.

The hindwing features a small, elegant tail projection and a series of tiny white marginal spots near the anal area.

The underside of the wings is a cryptic greyish-brown, mimicking a dead leaf perfectly to provide camouflage when the butterfly is at rest.

This specimen captures the duality of nature: the brilliant, warning red of the male and the subtle, deceptive camouflage of the resting pose.

Frame Size: 10-inch Square (25.4 × 25.4 cm)
