The butterfly’s wings are a combination of rich brown and orange hues, with its most notable feature being the bold black and white \"88\" pattern on the underside of the hindwings. This characteristic, which resembles the number \"88,\" is the defining feature of the species and is highly visible when the butterfly rests with its wings closed. The forewings are dark brown with some faint orange streaks, and the hindwings, in contrast, display the sharp black-and-white markings against a creamy background. With a wingspan of approximately 40 to 50 mm, this butterfly is medium-sized but stands out because of its vibrant patterns and the unique \"88\" shape.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e*Diaethria clymena peruviana* typically inhabits the humid, dense forests of the Peruvian Amazon, where it thrives in areas with abundant vegetation near rivers and streams. The species is often seen resting on tree trunks or feeding on the nectar of flowers, as well as on rotting fruit or damp soil. These butterflies are not particularly aggressive, often remaining motionless for long periods, but when disturbed, they may take flight with an erratic darting motion, characteristic of many forest-dwelling butterflies. The \"88\" pattern on their hindwings provides effective camouflage, helping them blend into their environment and avoid predators. Although not considered endangered, habitat destruction poses a potential threat to their population, making conservation efforts in their native regions essential.\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.
