Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Bhutanitis lidderdalii" in Portuguese language version.
The Bhutan Glory has a wingspan of up to 11cm. It is primarily found in the Himalayas at elevations of over 5,000 feet (1,500m). Moving with a slow, erratic flight, the transparent grey undersides of the wings help to camouflage the Bhutan Glory among the shadows of the trees, and when alighting, the wings fold to conceal the vibrant orange-red markings.
The butterfly was confined to Doi Chiang Dao, Chiang Mai. However it is thought to have become extinct due to a large-scale forest fire that destroyed its habitat in 1983.
Bhutanitis lidderdalii is listed under Least Concern.
