EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this stunning print captured by the talented Alan Weaving, we are introduced to a true fashion icon of the rainforest - the Red Lacewing Butterfly. With its vibrant hues and delicate patterns, this butterfly knows how to make a statement! Found in rainforests across Nepal, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines at higher altitudes, this elegant creature prefers to hang out along forest edges and tracks through dense foliage. It has developed a taste for nectar from Lantana camara flowers while gracefully fluttering around. But what makes this beauty truly unique is its choice of larval food plant - Passiflora cochinchinese. This plant imparts an intriguing distastefulness to adult butterflies that dare to snack on it! Talk about having style with substance! With its intricate wings resembling delicate lacework and mesmerizing colors that could rival any high-end fashion collection in Asia or beyond, ASW-4421 is undoubtedly a showstopper among lepidoptera enthusiasts. So let your imagination take flight as you bring home this image by Alan Weaving. Let it remind you of nature's incredible diversity and inspire you to embrace your own unique style just like our fabulous Red Lacewing Butterfly!
