The colour of blue morpho butterfly's wings are bright blue and with tiny brown dots along the edges, and the underside has colour like the foliage. And blue morpho butterfly is called "Morpho" it's because the underside of their wings is the same color as a moth's wings. And it's really interesting facts for this blue morpho.
