On the same cluster of Duranta erecta, also known as Cayenne Vanilla, two butterflies from different horizons share a moment of tranquility.
Above, the Parthenos sylvia, recognizable by its white and brown veined wings, displays a powerful yet light appearance. This Asian butterfly, nicknamed the Clipper, is known for its rapid and erratic flight, which contrasts with the tranquility of this pose.
Below, a male Papilio memnon, the Great Mormon, catches the eye with its majestic wingspan and muted colors. Although females are often more conspicuous, the male, with its bluish-black wings and subtle metallic sheen, is just as elegant.
The scene seems frozen, almost choreographed, as if these two species, though strangers to each other in their natural habitat, had arranged to meet on these purple flowers edged in white.
In the subdued calm of the greenhouse, this living tableau evokes the unexpected harmony that diversity can offer.
