Luminosa Fluturae, meaning 'glowing butterfly,' is a notable member of the Fluorescentum Mystica cluster, comprising 200 bioluminescent Lepidoptera species. This small butterfly spans up to 10 cm and weighs under 2 grams, featuring translucent wings with iridescent blue, purple, and yellow patterns. Its wing edges have filamentous, droplet-like extensions aiding ethereal gliding through tropical rainforest canopies. L. Fluturae emits blue-spectrum (450-495 nm) bioluminescent light along veins and wing tips for communication and predator deterrence. Adapted to warm (20-30°C), humid conditions, it is crepuscular and inhabits upper dense forest strata. As a vulnerable species, it offers insights into Fluorescentum Mystica evolution and underscores the ecological role of Lepidoptera bioluminescence and habitat conservation.
