Few weeks ago we went to a butterfly garden, in Rügen island... It was a beautiful big room with lots of exotic plants and flowers and the warmth and humidity one can find in the rainforest... The butterflies there are mainly from tropical weather, and they bring them from South America... The light was not so good and they didn't allow pictures with flash...
As they were not so shy I could take picture with the macro lens... Sorry I don't know the name of them...

They are better without flash. The colours are more vibrant. Did your camera steam up, mine did.:/

Great shots Irma. The lighting, contrast and DOF looks stunning in the first.

Beautiful, love the detail and patterns in the wings.
