Description
6 metalmark clearwing Riodinidae family Chlorinea genus swordtail dark blue butterflies with orange heart shapes on their hind wings are shown on a purple background with yellow 5-petaled flowers and green leaves of the hippocratea plant, its caterpillar’s host plant, in this neo-tropical broad leaf forest butterfly nature mandala. Many Chlorinea butterflies are native to Bolivia and Peru and other parts of South America. Amazing and unique, transparent wings are an evolutionary advantage providing camouflage and protection for clearwing butterflies at rest and in flight from potential predators. Take an eco-trip to my website phelpsmandala.com for over 850 colorful and creative nature images and multiple blog posts centering on my art process and influences. You will find this unique nature design on coffee mugs, tote bags and other items in my shop. Thank you for choosing my art for your home and your family.
