Framed Emerald Swallowtail Butterfly (Papilio palinurus) – Real Specimen Display
Add a dazzling splash of living color to your space with this stunning, professionally framed Emerald Swallowtail butterfly (Papilio palinurus), also known as the Emerald Peacock or Green-banded Peacock.
This striking Southeast Asian swallowtail is famous for its deep black wings crossed by broad, brilliant metallic emerald-green bands that shimmer and shift with the light. The iridescent green is created by microscopic structural scales rather than pigment, giving the butterfly a gemstone-like glow that changes with every angle. The undersides reveal a completely different look—rich black with orange, white, and blue spots—while elegant tails complete its classic swallowtail silhouette.
Native to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia (including Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and surrounding regions), the Emerald Swallowtail is a favorite in butterfly houses worldwide and a prized specimen for collectors.
