Species: Morpho didius

Morphos have a very distinctive, slow, bouncy flight pattern due to their wing area being enormous relative to their body size. Many of the Morpho species are metallic shimmery shades of blue and it is thought that the flash of the iridescent blue to their dark underside confuses predators when in flight.

Males are most frequently encountered along rivers and streams running through the jungle. They are quite belligerent and will actively chase away any large butterflies which may happen to invade its territory. Spending much of the late morning and afternoon patrolling their home ranges in search of females.

Like other members of the genus, adults do not visit flowers, but rather prefer fermenting fruit and sugary saps.
