Top 10 most beautiful butterflies

10. Dead Leaf Butterfly (Orange Oak Leaf) for brown and dark wallpapers

This butterfly is the perfect example of beautiful animal camouflage. The underside of the dead butterfly’s wing is brown and dark. 

The veins and irregular patterns on the wings make it look like a dead leaf. However, its upper parts have bright colors including orange, white, brown, and blue.

They are also known as the Indian leaf butterfly and can be found in the rainforest of Asia.

9. Swallowtail Emerald for yellow and blue wallpapers

This butterfly is part of a large family of swallowtail butterflies and has 550 different species worldwide. 

The emerald swallowtail is among the largest and most colorful butterflies in the universe. They are usually found in Southeast Asia and have wings with bright green bands. 

The structural color of their wings also has yellow and blue highlights, and the underside of these butterflies is orange and black. 

If you look at the underside of their wings, you will also see many blue spots toward the edges.

8. Butterfly with glass wings for reddish-brown wallpapers

As the name suggests, this butterfly has beautiful transparent wings. Also known as Greta oto, this species of butterfly is found in Colombia and Mexico.

All thanks to their transparent wings, it becomes very difficult for predators such as reptiles and birds to catch them.

 Mainly because of their reddish-brown edges, they are somewhat visible, though not easily. These butterflies feed mainly on a flower known as lantana.

7. Apollo butterfly

The Apollo butterfly has a beautiful white body and attractive wing spots. On the forewings of these butterflies, you will be able to see many black eyespots and even the hindwings have four red eyespots. 

The Apollo butterfly is found in parts of France, Spain, and Italy. And the brightness and size of the red spots vary depending on the location where they are found.

Not only are these butterflies known for their beauty, but their defensive strategies also make them attractive.

In their larval form, Apollo butterflies are dark in color and use this color to camouflage themselves. 

However, adult butterflies cannot use color to camouflage themselves, but they do create a foul odor to ward off predators.

6. Sylphina Angel

Sylphina butterflies have almost transparent wings and are distributed in Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru. The transparent inner part of these butterflies is lined with beautiful black outer wings. 

Their gorgeous tail features a fusion of shades of pink, blue, and green. Most of the time they stay under the leaves of plants and fly only in full sunlight.

5. Giant forest butterfly Owl

Giant owl butterflies are mainly known for the eyespots present on their wings, which look like their own real eyes. 

They belong to the owl butterfly family and are native to Central and South America. The wingspan of these butterflies is large, ranging from 13 to 16 cm. 

The huge eye patterns on their wings resemble the eyes of many predators. It helps these butterflies to easily escape from predators such as frogs or lizards and also threatens many small animals.

The upper wing of the giant forest owl butterfly is yellowish brown with purple edges. These butterflies feed mainly on fruit and have a lifespan of 125 to 150 days.

4. Eighty-eight butterflies

This gorgeous butterfly is native to Central and South America. The black and white stripes on their wings outline the number “88” and that’s why they are called that.

The same number is found in 12 species of diphtheria butterflies. However, the pattern and coloring are slightly different in different species. The upper part of the Eighty Eight butterfly’s wings is black with a band of green and blue on their forewings. 

The underside of the wings has black markings on red and white. The brightness and thickness of the black marking differ in eighty-eight different butterflies.

3. Peacock Pansy

What mainly makes peacock pansies different is their beautiful spots. These butterflies are native to South Asian countries. The upper part of the wings of these butterflies has a yellowish-brown color and brown edges.

They also have rib bars and ‘peacock spots’. If you look closely at the underside of the wings, the spots will be more visible.

The patterns present on the underside of the wings of a peacock pansy change with the seasons and this is another thing that is so fascinating about this butterfly.

2. Long-winged zebra butterfly

This is the official butterfly of Florida, and as the name suggests, the Zebra Longwing Butterfly has long narrow wings with zebra-like stripes. 

The wings are black with yellow stripes.

Both the lower and upper parts of the wings carry the same pattern, but the lower part of the wings is lighter compared to the upper part. 

These beautiful butterflies can be found in Central and South America and their wingspan vary between 72 and 100 mm.

1. Blue morpho: The most beautiful butterfly wallpapers

One of the most beautiful butterfly wallpaper is the blue morpho. An imitation of a Neotropical insect that is part of the Nymphalid family.

And lives in the tropical regions of South America.

The preferred habitats of the butterfly are in forested areas, at altitudes between sea level and 1400 m.

Nymphalid are also called four-legged butterflies. Because they have the legs of the first pair of reduced size, bent, resting only on the last 2 pairs of legs.

At rest they hold their wings together, exposing the warning coloration on the ventral side of the wings. 

The special beauty of the Morpho butterfly wallpapers is given by the insect’s iridescent blue color. And this is specific to males and is present only on the dorsal side of the wings.

On the ventral side, the wings are brown, with eye-shaped patterns. Females are brown.

The blue color is a structural one. And is generated by the presence of microscopic scales, distributed in layers, on the surface of the wings.

Their shape and specific placement determine the refraction of light and, as a result, the appearance of iridescence, a type of optical illusion.

The species is diurnal and individuals are usually solitary except during the mating season.

And the life cycle lasts 115 days, going through a complete metamorphosis that includes 4 stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The larvae feed on the leaves of the plant species on which the eggs were laid.

But the adults consume the juice from fruits, decaying animals, and fungi.
Adults are consumed by a few species of predators because their body contains a large number of toxins that they accumulate from the larval stage.

Why are butterflies so beautiful?

And Why are butterflies, as well as butterfly wallpapers so beautiful? Why do their wings glow with all the colors of the rainbow?

There are several reasons for this. First of all, both vision and color perception in butterflies are quite poor. And therefore, to be recognized by their relatives, they must have as bright a color as possible.

Secondly, predators are afraid of bright insects. Because brightly colored butterflies can be poisonous or simply disgusting to the taste. Therefore, this coloring is safer.

Third, it is known that many animal species attract mating partners using beautiful colors. And people too still have the habit of dressing up in their finest clothes for their wedding. Even men show multicolored outfits.

Birds even deliberately adopt poses in which bright areas of plumage are displayed.

But butterflies come out of the chrysalis only for the “wedding”: they have only one goal – to find a “groom” or “bride” and leave offspring. So butterflies just can’t help but be attractive!

Butterfly wallpaper imitates the beauty of these beautiful, bright, and fragile creatures.

Due to their beauty, these butterflies are often captured not only on wallpapers but also by natives or traders to be used in the handicraft industry.

Butterfly wings

Their wings are encased in clear plastic molds, which are then turned into decorative items or jewelry.

Whole insects are also sold, and displayed, in the form of paintings.

To obtain live specimens more easily, it is customary for the larvae to be collected and cared for until the adults appear.

Also, the species is often used in exhibitions with live insects.

How and where to install butterfly wallpapers

The choice of your butterfly wallpaper pattern depends on your design style.

When you orient yourself toward such graphic symbols, you must take into account the style of the furniture too. Because of the brightness of the room and the chromaticity of the ensemble.

And that way you can achieve chromatic consonants between the butterfly models and the existing color palette in the room.

If you are a creative and daring spirit, bring the beauty of butterflies into atypical interiors (such as bathrooms).  Or in artistic contexts (in deco groups out of patterns).

But pay attention to the mix of elements. Try to find a common vein, so that the story of the arrangement is a coherent one, with harmonious aesthetic substrates.
