Title: "Danaus ismare Alba: A Stunning Brush-footed Butterfly from Sulawesi, Indonesia" This image showcases the Danaus ismare alba, a male butterfly specimen native to the Sulawezi region in Indonesia. Belonging to the family Nymphalidae and the subfamily Danainae, this exquisite insect is also known as a brush-footed butterfly or milkweed butterfly due to its distinctive hind feet, which resemble the brushes used by artists.

The upper side of this male specimen displays a striking pattern of black wings with large, orange spots and intricate white lines. The wingspan of this species can reach up to 12 centimeters, making it a captivating sight in its natural habitat. As an invertebrate and an arthropod, the Danaus ismare alba is part of the vast phylum Arthropoda, which includes insects and other invertebrates.
