About This Specimen

Platycrana viridana is a distinctive member of the Heteropterygidae family, its genus name Platycrana (Greek: broad-headed) referencing its characteristically wide head structure, while its species name viridana (Latin: green) reflects its natural colouration that provides excellent camouflage among rainforest foliage. Found across the rainforests of Southeast Asia, this A1 spread specimen preserves both its structural breadth and fine morphological detail in exceptional condition — a scientifically interesting and visually refined addition to any entomology collection or framed natural history display.

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