Saffron-bodied Clear-tip, Rio Ñambi, Colombia

Highlight of this species are the clear areas on the sides of the wings, hence the name "Clear-tip". Some claim to see dalmatian patterns in those areas, but this theory is largely dismissed as local folklore.

      Isn't it cool how just two people create entirely new vocabularies and expressions that make zero sense to anybody else? Language develops so incredibly rapidly. Posted 6 years ago
