U.S. sales only. I do NOT ship any specimens outside the United States. Please do not ask!

This insect is mounted in a Riker frame, which is black fiberboard with a glass front, and a cotton-like material holding the specimen in place. It can easily be opened to remove the specimen for alternate mounting.

It might surprise you to learn that butterfly collecting actually helps the Earth\'s ecology since it allows local people to raise butterflies to support their families, giving them an incentive to maintain the rainforests and jungles! Butterflies live only a short time, and mate immediately after emerging from their chrysalis. The female lays eggs as quickly as possible on the plant preferred by the species--if those plants are kept available!

My insects are imported under permit issued by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Please be aware that this permit is required to bring insects into the United States, including butterflies and moths. Not all foreign sellers will tell you this.
