Its most distinctive feature is its large, colourful wings, resembling a flickering candle flame, which serve both for camouflage and communication. These insects are plant sap feeders, using their piercing mouthparts to extract nutrients. Adults can reach up to 3 inches in length and have vibrant patterns of red, orange, and black on their bodies. They are known for their unique appearance and are often considered symbols of luck in some cultures. Despite their captivating aesthetics, lantern flies can be agricultural pests, damaging crops by sapping plant juices.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWe firmly support sustainable tropical fauna as long as they take care of the conservation of the rainforest where they fly and the development of 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 take into consideration that the specimen that 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.
