The Adina Clearwing (Dircenna adina) is a delicate butterfly with semi-transparent wings edged and veined in black, creating a glass-like appearance. Its subtle coloration and airy structure give it an almost ghostlike presence in flight.
Native to Central and South America, Dircenna adina is found in tropical forests, where it typically inhabits shaded understories and forest edges.
Interesting Fact:
This species is part of the Ithomiini group, many of which are toxic and participate in complex mimicry systems, sharing similar transparent wing patterns to signal unpalatability to predators.
This specimen is preserved, fully spread and professionally mounted in a clear PE display frame, making it ready for immediate display. Collection data is included.
All specimens are ethically sourced, collected responsibly with a focus on sustainability and minimal impact on wild populations.
