If you’re walking along in the rainforest, you might see straight through this stunning creature, and that’s exactly what the glasswing butterfly intends for you to do. This brush-footed butterfly that is native to Central and South America has the most attractive feature: its transparent wings, which resemble a clear window.
Naturally, these transparent wings confer a huge advantage to this butterfly due to its incredible ability to disappear into the background while flying or feeding on flowers.
