It is renowned for its large size and vibrant appearance, often featuring translucent wings with dark veins and a shimmering blue or green body. The wingspan can reach up to 15 cm (about 6 inches), making it one of the larger cicada species. Polyneura ducalis is notable for its loud, resonant calls, typical of cicadas, which the males produce to attract mates. They are commonly found in forested regions, where they blend into tree trunks due to their coloration. Their life cycle includes long periods spent underground as nymphs, followed by a brief adult stage. These cicadas play a role in their ecosystem as both prey for birds and small mammals and as pollinators for certain plant species.#\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWe firmly support sustainable tropical butterfly collections as long as they protect the rainforest where they fly and develop 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.
