Dircenna adina xanthophane - Adina Clearwing

$43.00

This listing features a single, authentic vintage specimen of Dircenna adina xanthophane, collected in January 2003 in Tingo María, Peru, and professionally spread and mounted inside a clean PE floating display frame.

Dircenna adina is a member of the “clearwing tiger” group — a delicate nymphalid known for its transparent wings, soft amber tones, and elegant brown veining. This individual shows the characteristic warm honey coloration along the margins with the pale glasslike wing centers that make this genus so distinctive.

Because this specimen is over 20 years old, it also carries the visual charm of true vintage entomology collections while remaining structurally well preserved.
