Beautiful Butterfly - True Art of Mother Nature!

Transparent Winged Butterfly
Glasswing Butterfly (Greta Oto) is brush-footed butterfly with amazing transparent wings. True wonders of our "Crazy Planet Called Earth"

Adults range from Mexico through Panama. Greta Oto visits common flowers like lantana, but prefers to lay its eggs on plants of the tropical nightshade genus Cestrum. The red and purple striped caterpillars feed on these toxic plants and store the alkaloids in their tissues, making them distasteful to predators such as birds. They retain their toxicity in adulthood. The same alkaloids that make them poisonous also are converted into pheromones by the males, which use them to attract females.

Adults also exhibit a number of interesting behaviors, such as long migrations and lekking among males.

The Emerald Swallowtail (Papilio palinurus) is a butterfly found primarily in South East Asia and is one of the very few green butterflies around. It is also referred to as Emerald Peacock or Green-banded Peacock Swallowtail
