Male
Queen Alexandra's Birdwing is the biggest butterfly in the world and was named by Alfred S. Meek (in 1907) to honor Queen Alexandra (1844-1925), the Danish wife of King Edward VII of England (1841-1910).

The males and females are very different in size, wing coloration, pattern, and shape, and body color. The female is larger, has brown wings (with white markings) and has a cream-colored body with a red tuft of fur on the thorax. The male is smaller, much brighter (with blue and green marking on its wings) and a bright yellow body.

Queen Alexandra's Birdwing is a poisonous butterfly; it obtains its poison from the toxic pipevine plant (Aristolochia schlecteri).

This very rare (and endangered) butterfly is only found in a small strip of lowland coastal rain forest in Northern Province Papua New Guinea (east of the Owen Stanley Mountains). They live in lowland tropical forests.
