Framed Green-banded Urania Moth (Urania leilus) – Real Specimen Display
Add a vivid flash of Amazonian brilliance to your collection with this professionally framed Green-banded Urania (Urania leilus).
This striking day-flying moth is often mistaken for a butterfly thanks to its bold colors and active daytime habits. It features deep black wings crossed by brilliant metallic green bands that shimmer with an almost electric intensity in the light. The clean, high-contrast pattern and elegant wing shape create a dramatic and sophisticated display piece.
Native to the tropical rainforests of South America east of the Andes — especially the Amazon basin (including Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, the Guianas, and Trinidad) — the Green-banded Urania is typically found along riverbanks in primary and secondary forest from sea level up to about 800 meters.
