Ornithoptera croesus
Wallace's Golden Birdwing
Wallace's Golden Birdwing In Box Frame (Ornithoptera croesus)

    Golden

    I have about 40 specimens on my wall now and this one along with the Male Cape York birdwing are definitely two of the real stand outs. Huge, and beautifully preserved, I consider myself fortunate to have one of these endangered specimens in my home, safe in the knowledge that it was sourced ethically and responsibly.

        Painted Jezebel Butterfly Ventral Side In Box Frame (Delias hyparete)

          Gorgeous

          This one wasn't on my radar initially as it's not one I commonly see in butterfly houses, but it had such striking colours I couldn't resist. As always, a perfect quality specimen from the team at Minibeast, gorgeously presented.
