Introducing the Red and Yellow Snout Nosed Lantern Fly in a Shadow Box Frame, a captivating specimen of natural art that highlights the fascinating beauty of the natural world with its striking red and yellow colour, and is expertly mounted on high-quality acid-free conservation paper and displayed in a beautifully crafted wooden box frame.

Pyrops is a genus of planthoppers that occur primarily in southeast Asia, containing about 70 species. They are fairly large insects, with much of the length due to an elongated, upcurving, snout-like projection of the head. The wings are generally brightly patterned in contrasting colours, and they are popular among collectors.
