HABITAT

The Morpho butterfly lives in the tropical rainforests of Central and South America, including countries like Brazil, Peru, and Costa Rica. These butterflies thrive in humid environments near rivers and streams, often seen fluttering in forest clearings where sunlight penetrates the canopy.

Species Facts

Navigational Skills

Morphos have impressive navigational skills. They can remember landmarks and routes in their dense rainforest habitats, aiding in their search for food and mates.

Camouflage

When the Morpho butterfly closes its wings, the underside is a dull brown with eye spots, providing excellent camouflage against predators. This dual coloration helps them blend into their surroundings when at rest and flash bright blue to startle and confuse predators when in flight.

Large Wingspan

The Morpho butterfly has a large wingspan that can range from 5 to 6 inches, making it one of the largest butterflies in the world. Some species, like the Morpho didius, can even reach up to 8 inches.
