Calendula Butterfly Figurine

With its bright yellow wings, the Clouded Yellow butterfly adds a vibrant splash of color to meadows and gardens. A tireless migrant, it is observed in Europe, Africa, and as far as Asia, where it travels long distances throughout the seasons.

Remarkably, though discreet, this butterfly plays an essential role in pollinating the flowers it visits to feed on nectar. Its caterpillars, meanwhile, mostly develop on clovers and other plants of the legume family. Recognizable in flight by its rapid and erratic wingbeat, the Clouded Yellow is often confused with other orange butterflies, but its black-bordered wings allow for its identification.

This Papo figurine finely reproduces the Clouded Yellow butterfly: finely detailed wings, vibrant color, and realistic posture. An ideal model to enrich a collection of insects or garden animals, invent poetic stories, or raise children's awareness of the importance of pollinators.

A great gift idea for curious children, nature enthusiasts, insect and small garden animal lovers, and Papo figurine collectors.
