Ulysses Butterfly
With the possible exception of the Monarch, there is no butterfly as iconic as the Ulysses. Originally described by Linnaeus in his Systema Naturae—and presumably named for the protagonist of the Ancient Greek epic The Odyssey—the Ulysses Butterfly never fails to strike one with its timeless beauty. It inhabits parts of Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, as well as tropical north Queensland.
Our Ulysses Butterflies are sourced from Indonesia; we carefully preserve and mount them one by one locally to create an elegant display which can easily be placed on a wall, mantle, shelf, or wherever one wants a pop of brilliant colour. When kept out of direct sunlight and moisture, these museum-quality displays can last for decades.
