When Zoologists are Colourblind - _TNY_6719

I made a really sweet find at the Haga Ocean butterfly house the other day - a pink rose (Pachliopta kotzebuea) which posed nicely.

 

In the wild, this species can be found in the Phillipines and I think it is an absolute stunner! The only thing I don't get is how someone sees this black and red masterpiece and decide to name it "the pink rose".
