This beautiful butterfly in resin has amazingly intricate patterns throughout its burnt orange wings. This species is called Cethosia Biblis, commonly known as the Red Lacewing butterfly. It can be found in the lush forest of the Indian subcontinent and East Asia. It's bright coloration and markings are a warning to
predators
that it has a bad taste, which comes from the poisonous host plant it fed on as a
caterpillar
.
