This birdwing boasts large wings, with males displaying a vibrant contrast of black and golden yellow. The forewings are typically black with intricate veins, while the hindwings are a vivid yellow with black edges. Females are generally larger, featuring more muted, darker hues compared to the males.\u003cbr\u003eThis butterfly is native to the islands of Indonesia, particularly found in the Maluku and Sulawesi regions, inhabiting tropical rainforests.\nThe species name \"criton\" likely honours a figure in Greek mythology, though specific references remain unclear. Its genus name, Troides, is derived from the Trojan hero, Tros.\nA fascinating curiosity is that the Criton birdwing is part of the prized \"birdwing\" group, known for their large wingspans and vibrant colors, making them sought after by collectors.\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.\nPlease 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.
