                A. mittrei male

                What a wonderful wonderful thing. Very few species on this website give you more beautiful moth for your buck than this one! (Sorry for the mediocre photo.)

                Lethocerus indicus

                  Water monstrosity

                  Much larger than expected, the stuff of nightmares! Would not like to meet one in real life. Well packaged.

                  Idolomantis diabolica
                  Devil's Flower Mantis

                    Alien creature

                    Looks very peculiar, especially on the ventral side. Very well preserved specimen.

                        I love the darker colour on this atlas moth, and it contrasts really well with the pink atlas moth

                        Papilio zalmoxis
                        Giant Blue Swallowtail Butterfly

                          Beautiful blue

                          The blue is paler than my other blue butterflies (like a greyish pastel blue) but when the light hits it in certain ways becomes more vivid.

                          Papilio blumei
                          The Peacock Butterfly

                            Amazing

                            Looks so much better in person and especially if it catches the sunlight, the darker parts of the wings turn a shiny pearlescent green.

                              What a beast this butterfly is! Bold, striking and very big! Stands out the most in my collection.

                                A very beautiful trio of butterflies. They are small but nevertheless very stunning and shiny. Upon request they were placed in a 11 x 5 Inch frame (thank you!)

                                    Finding it hard to wrap my head around how this butterfly exists with its many colours. Looks like a painting!

                                    The Peacock Butterfly

                                      Almost sparkling!

                                      The stippling look of this butterfly is insane! Almost looks sparkly. Inside the frame it’s a little dusty, so I’ll have to open it up to clean but no other complaints. Reply from Minibeast:- Dust will come off the wood and specimen during transit. We include instructions on the leaflet in the box on how to open the back and clean the glass and remove any particles that may be in the frame.

Pictures do not do these butterflies justice- they are absolutely stunning and I have no idea how this pair doesn’t have dozens of reviews yet.

                                                    The green to purple iridescence survived the dimorphism. It is almost gone in the female M. Sulkowskyi.
