Blue Eyes, Red Lipstick - _TNY_1394

It might require a bit artistic freedom to interpret the red proboscis of this one-spotted prepona (Archaeoprepona demophon) as lipstick, but it really is a dinstinct look. This species, which is also known as the banded king shoemaker for some reason, has a very nice dorsal side of the wings with a black base coloour and a turquoise-blue metallic band. Hopefully I'lll manage to catch one with the wings open soon.
