Heliconius doris, or the Doris longwing is a species of butterfly in the family Nymphalidae. It is known for being a polymorphic species which participates in various Müllerian mimicry rings throughout Central America and the Amazon rainforest. It is a species of special interest in biological science for the genetic basis and role of polymorphism (biology) in ecology and evolution.

Here you have a Heliconius doris eratonius and Heliconius doris obscurus pair. They are super cute and you'll love their contrasting wing colors.

Encased in a black plastic float frame with elasticity film which allows you to easily see both sides of your baby.
