Morpho portis blue butterfly Argentina
Approximate size of specimen: 2.5in wingspan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXWcS1c7d4I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WM3exKsSlA&t=39s More about Morpho butterflies: The blue morpho has been made famous by the movie "Papillon". Historically, the scales from this butterfly have been incorporated into paper money in order to prevent counterfeiting. A prison on Devil's Island, off the coast of French Guyana, famously utilized this technique and had prisoners collecting Morpho butterflies for this purpose in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
