I photographed the Menelaus blue morpho (Morpho peleides) showing its ventral surface in the Tucson Botanicle Garden in Arizona. It is one of thirty species of butterfly in the subfamily Morphinae. Its wingspan is approximately 12 cm, and its dorsal forewings and hindwings are a bright, iridescent blue edged with black, while the ventral surfaces are brown. Wikipedia
