Framed Madagascan Sunset Moth (Chrysiridia rhipheus) – Real Specimen Display
Add one of the world’s most dazzling insects to your collection with this professionally framed Madagascan Sunset Moth (Chrysiridia rhipheus), also known as the Sunset Moth.
Often called the most beautiful moth in the world, this day-flying moth features black wings banded with iridescent green, finished with brilliant flashes of red, orange, gold, and blue on the hindwings. None of these colors come from pigment—they are produced entirely by microscopic structural scales that bend and reflect light, so the colors shift with every angle. With a wingspan of roughly 3–3.5 inches, it is a true showpiece.
Native only to Madagascar, the Sunset Moth is so colorful that it is often mistaken for a butterfly.
