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

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.

Iridescent Blue Wings

The most striking feature of the Morpho butterfly is its brilliant blue wings, which are not due to pigment but rather to the microscopic scales that reflect light. This iridescence makes the wings appear as if they are glowing and can be seen from a distance, acting as a warning to predators.

Role in Ecosystem

The Morpho butterfly’s diet includes rotting fruit, fungi, sap, and even decomposing animals. This diverse diet allows them to play an important role in their ecosystem, aiding in decomposition and nutrient recycling.
