About this flag

Blue Triangle Butterfly

  • Element 1: Emblem

    Aesthetics - horny caterpillar

    Blue Triangle Butterfly caterpillars have a fleshy horn that pops up from a slit behind their head and emits a strong smell.

  • Element 2: Pattern

    Miscellaneous - photoreceptors

    Blue Triangle butterflies possess 15 classes of vision cells, known as photoreceptors – the highest number for any species (humans have four). All the photoreceptors are used at the same time, sensing colour, brightness, movement and shape. They cannot see as clearly as human eyes, but are better at seeing a wide panorama, fast movement, polarisation and grades of colour.
