The arrangement of submarginal spots on the forewings is extremely fascinating. The spot pattern on the hind wings is reminiscent of the rough waves in Katsushika Hokusai’s “Fugaku Sanjurokkei (Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji) Kanagawa-okiinamiura“. This specimen is full of gorgeous charm of Birdwing females. (Yasui)
