Luminosa Flutura, meaning 'shining butterfly,' is a bioluminescent lepidopteran from the Aurorae Lepidoptera cluster. It has a delicate wingspan up to 10 cm with semi-translucent wings showing a gradient from deep amber to teal, intricate veins, and scalloped edges. The dorsum emits warm amber-orange luminescence, contrasting with blue-green highlights along wing margins (emission spectrum 420–490 nm). Its slender body, up to 2 g, supports articulated antennae and legs adapted for rainforest understory life at 20–30°C. L. Flutura’s bioluminescence likely aids communication and predator deterrence. Classified among 10 bioluminescent related species, it is near-threatened, emphasizing conservation importance within tropical biodiversity studies.
