Of all of the species of butterflies and moths, which one would you say is the most beautiful, /an/?

I'm casting my vote for the Madagascar sunset moth (Chrysiridia rhipheus).

It's not original, but it's true

Think of any pretty butterfly and there’s probably a Papilionid that’s better than it

Agreed and nothing else even comes close.

>>5070561 (OP)
Papilio paris or any of the other peacock swallowtails

>>5070561 (OP)
Can't pick just one. There's too much variety. But G. weiskei is very nice. Only found in the mountains of New Guinea, nobody even knows what its host plant is.

Is that a cecropia moth?

>>5070982
It is. Lunas are also neat.

I am partial to such filigrees

I like the bird poop being eaten by bugs one
