This frame contains two beautiful native Indonesian Swallowtail butterflies:
Peacock Swallowtail -- Papilio blumei
Blue Mountain Swallowtail -- Papilio ulysses
The wing scales reflect back the blue wavelengths of light, but do not contain their own pigment. This structural color produces some impressive iridescence.
