Commonly referred to as the Ebony Fan Flatid, this insect is noted for its flattened, broad wings which resemble a fan or leaf, providing excellent camouflage against bark and foliage. Its coloration typically features subtle earth tones with darker margins, making it blend seamlessly into its environment. Like other flatids, Bythopsyrna ebonfana feeds on plant sap through specialized mouthparts, and it may produce waxy secretions, which are characteristic of the group.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Ebony Fan Flatid is primarily distributed in Southeast Asia, with recorded sightings in regions such as Indonesia (notably the island of Seram), Papua New Guinea, and nearby islands in the Malay Archipelago. Its habitat includes tropical forests, where it resides on the trunks and branches of host trees. Though not extensively studied, its cryptic nature and limited distribution make it an interesting subject for entomologists and collectors. As with many Flatidae, its ecological role includes being part of a complex food web and potentially serving as a pollinator or prey for other forest organisms.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWe firmly support the sustainable tropical butterfly collections as long as they take care of conserving the rainforest where they fly and developing responsible conscious trading.\nThis allows us to support local ranching farms with ethically sourced material and help at the same time collectors and enthusiasts to contribute to understanding and treasuring those species.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePlease consider that the specimen you will receive may slightly differ in size, shape or colour from the picture shown as you are purchasing a natural product.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePlease note: In our selection of white frames, the inner box frame—the part that creates the depth of the shadow box—is currently only available in black, as white versions are not available at this time.
