About Euphaea lara lara

Euphaea lara lara is the nominate subspecies of Euphaea lara, a robust and richly coloured damselfly within the family Euphaeidae, found along forested streams in the Malay Peninsula and Borneo. Like its congeners, lara is characterised by the relatively large size, powerful build, and warm amber-orange wing colouration that distinguish the genus Euphaea from more delicate damselfly families. The subspecific designation lara lara identifies this as the nominate form — the reference population against which other subspecies are defined — lending it particular taxonomic significance for collectors building a systematic Euphaeidae or Bornean Odonata series. A handsome and scientifically precise specimen.

Perfect for entomologists, natural history collectors, educators, artists, interior designers seeking authentic Victorian cabinet aesthetics, and anyone passionate about the extraordinary diversity of the insect world.
