Papilio ulysses Butterfly Frame original_gift Species Name: Cymothoe hobartiThis is known in Australia as the Dunk Island Butterfly, a common butterfly in our tropics and in our region of Oceania. Males are so beautiful. The sub species I import are from Indonesia, where they have a breeding or ranching program that ensures the survival of the butterflies. They are mounted in an 8" x 10" shadowbox frame. They are preserved similarly to how museums do it.
