This listing features a genuine Oleria makrena makrena collected in September 1991 from the rainforests around Tingo María, Peru. This is a true vintage specimen from an older private collection, spread and mounted in a modern PE floating display frame.
Known for their subtle smoky transparency, Oleria clearwings are admired for their delicate beauty and soft contrast — part of the Ithomiini tribe, famous for their mimicry complexes and ethereal appearance. This individual shows warm chestnut-brown borders and beautifully aged patina without structural damage.
