A magnificent Red-spotted Purple in a handmade clear glass box frame, allowing you to see both sides of the specimen. All of our frames are handmade with precision in the UK meaning we have full control over the process.
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.
