THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE RAREST BUTTERFLY EVER
This picture has been shamelessly stolen from the latest edition of the Bulletin of the Amateur Entomological Society.
It is one of the illustrations from a fantastic article on halved gynandromorphs, but this has to take the biscuit; a halved gynandromorph large copper.
This is the equivelant of having a first issue PennyBlack with a misprint showing Queen Victoria smoking a suspiciously long cigarette whilst wearing a rasta hat!
Wayhay!

ace :D i've turned into a real butterfly fan this year, and my mother's garden is really good for them so we have lots, but mainly only common ones.
Reminds me of Josephine Joseph from "Freaks".
