Purple Spotted Swallowtail (Graphium weiskei) & a yellow swallowtail

The underside has the same exquisite shimmering pattern

if you look very closely under bright light you'll notice that the upper side black coloring is not black at all

On the tips of the wings are lovely silver spots

The colors shift from a neon blue to a shimmering aqua green

Unique shapes

some have an enchanting blue and lilac tint while others are more pearlescent

This RGB scheme trio covers all the bases

and the blue is almost ultraviolet

The wings are lined with a thin black line

The black of the wings is so deep and dark that it makes the already beautiful iridescent blue pattern even more wonderful

Morpho menelaus is quite a bit smaller than Morpho didius
