Lanternfly - Pyrops clavata mizunumai This is another neglected specimen from my collection...<br /> <br /> I hadn&#039;t intended to share this photo and only took it in case I wasn&#039;t able to spread the lanternfly because it was really brittle. But, it&#039;s 6 months later and I still haven&#039;t attempted to spread it yet, so I&#039;m sharing the photo now in case I never get around to it. ;P<br /> <br /> *Pinned specimen; native to southeast Asia<br /> <br /> It&#039;s very pretty with spread wings:<br /> <a href="https://as2.ftcdn.net/v2/jpg/02/38/11/75/1000_F_238117597_EOddFxoOQjW8aLdnDM0hMbHfvpVNtyJy.jpg" rel="nofollow">https://as2.ftcdn.net/v2/jpg/02/38/11/75/1000_F_238117597_EOddFxoOQjW8aLdnDM0hMbHfvpVNtyJy.jpg</a> Fulgoridae,Pyrops clavata,Pyrops clavata mizunumai,Pyrops clavatus,pyrops Click/tap to enlarge Species introCountry intro

Lanternfly - Pyrops clavata mizunumai

This is another neglected specimen from my collection...

I hadn't intended to share this photo and only took it in case I wasn't able to spread the lanternfly because it was really brittle. But, it's 6 months later and I still haven't attempted to spread it yet, so I'm sharing the photo now in case I never get around to it. ;P

*Pinned specimen; native to southeast Asia

It's very pretty with spread wings:
