Its wingspan can reach 15 centimeters, and its wings feature a distinct transparency with veiny, dark-brown outlines, making it easily recognizable. The moth's body is robust, with muted browns, oranges, and whites that blend into the foliage. Distributed primarily across East Africa, Madagascar, and regions of the Middle East, Xanthopan morganii has evolved alongside the star-shaped Angraecum sesquipedale orchid. In fact, Charles Darwin predicted the existence of this species after observing the orchid's long nectar spur, which Xanthopan morganii’s lengthy proboscis is adapted to reach. The name “Xanthopan” combines Greek roots for “yellow” (xantho-) and “all” (pan), hinting at its expansive reach and hue. This moth’s co-evolution with the orchid is a famous example of mutualistic adaptation, as it’s vital to the orchid’s reproduction.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\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\u003e\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.
