Postman by Foto Martien The Postman Butterfly, Common Postman, or simply Postman (Heliconius Melpomene) is a species of brush-footed butterfly belonging to the subfamily of longwings or heliconians. The Postman is one of the commonest and most widespread of the longwings, found from Mexico to Bolivia and southern Brazil. This butterfly is well known for its geographic diversity in colour pattern. Throughout its range, the Postman is co-mimetic with the Red or Small Postman (Heliconius erato), and both species have around 30 named geographic sub-species with very simular colors and markings. They are up to about 5.5 - 8.5 cm in wingspan. De postbode (Heliconius Melpomene) is een passiebloemvlinder die in circa 30 geografische ondersoorten en een diversiteit in kleurpatronen veel voorkomt in Midden-Amerika en het Amazonebekken, van Mexico tot zuidelijk Brazilië. De postbode is nauw verwant aan de rode of kleine postbode (Heliconius erato). Beide soorten leven in hetzelfde gebied, kennen circa 30 ondersoorten met bijna dezelfde kleurpatronen en tekeningen. Ze nemen elkaars uiterlijk aan (mimicry). Ze zijn ook even groot met een vleugelspanwijdte van 5,5 à 8,5 cm. Deze foto is gemaakt in de tropische vlindertuin van De Passiflorahoeve, een zorgboerderij bij Harskamp op de Veluwe. _________________________ All rights reserved. Copyright © Martien Uiterweerd.

A Postman (Piano Key) butterfly I think I did a great job, artistically, with this photo. Complimentary colors, asymmetrical balance of reds and black & white, framing, and the rule of thirds.
