Gloriosa Lumicula, deriving its name from Latin for 'glorious' and 'luminescence,' is a rare, protected lepidopteran native to tropical rainforest canopies with temperatures between 20-30°C. It has a moderate wingspan up to 10 cm, featuring vibrant wing patterns in warm oranges and subtle purples with glowing blue-green (450-495 nm) bioluminescent markings on wings and select body regions. Its delicate scalloped wings and slender body enable agile, energy-efficient flight among dense foliage. Taxonomically within Chromaflorae Lepidoptera, this species exhibits bioluminescence likely for communication and camouflage, playing a key role in tropical ecosystem biodiversity.
