The Blue Morpho Butterfly, also known as Morpho peleides, is a striking species found in Central and SouthAmerica. Its wings are a bright iridescent blue with black edges, and can reach up to 20 cm in width. The blue coloration is due to microscopic structures on the wings that reflect light. The butterfly’s coloring also helps to deter predators.
