Beautiful Butterflies (and moths)

At the Zoo there has been a new part built called the Butterfly House.  There are lots of species of butterfly and two moth species.  In the enclosure there are pupa that are hatching out all the time.  I will name a few of the butterflies that are below.

Tiger longwing


Common crow

Brown clipper

Blue clipper

Large tree nymph


Postman

Great eggfly

Blue morpho

Malachite


Red lacewing

African moon moth


Emerald swallowtail

Scarlet mormon 



Zebra longwing
I am sorry I couldn't name all the butterflies.  If you would like to find out more go to ZSL Whipsnade Zoo.
