Apollo Butterfly

| View Cart ⇗ | Info

“The Apollo butterfly, P. Apollo, is found in the damp meadows of the high Alps; the wings are whitish, wth five black spots on each of the superior ones; on the inferior are two sparkling eye-like figures, bordered with black. It flies in June and July. Thus even wild mountain regions, as well as those of the florid tropics, are embellished by this beautiful family.” — Goodrich, 1859
