A Red-spotted Purple butterfly in a handmade wooden frame mounted on high-quality acid-free conservation board. The Latin and common names are printed underneath the specimen.

The Limenitidini are a tribe of "brush-footed butterflies", due to being known for perching on hindlegs, whereas the other two forelegs are positioned curled up. These two forelegs often have brush-like hairs, which is a main identifier of the Nymphalidae family.
