Fly to Amazonia and explore the Guiana forest in the company of scientists Violaine Llaurens and Vincent Debat, to learn more about these fascinating species that fascinate evolutionary specialists.

Morphos are some of the most beautiful butterflies in the world, but their lives are not always easy. Not everyone can survive in the rainforest ! Not all butterflies are equally adept at escaping predators or finding mating partners. Speed, flight path, wing color... In each Morpho species, we find different characteristics, adapted to the constraints of their environment, resulting from millions of years of evolution.
