Dunk Island Butterfly
Scientific Name: Papilio ulysses
Common Name: Blue ulysses
Origin: Indonesia
Dimensions: 8" x 10" Shadow Box Frame
This is one of the most popular Australasian butterflies known as the Dunk Island Butterfly and is commonly seen in our tropical Oceania regions. The male is brighter with its iridescent colours in strong contrast to the black background colour. The female is more subdued, but both sexes have black tails and irregularly scalloped hindwings. Males are always curious about blue objects, even artificial ones, and this can be used to draw them closer for observation purposes.
These sub-species are imported from Indonesia, where they have a breeding or ranching program that ensures the survival of the butterflies.
