Description
The Heliconius erato is called "The Small Postman" in England because of its colors black, red and yellow.
The Heliconius erato is often confused with his brother: the Heliconius melpomene. Both butterflies have the same colors, a similar wing pattern and even the butterflies look like each other! The butterflies doll explain which Heliconia species they are. The Heliconius Erato doll has two nasty protrusions, and the pop of the Heliconius melpomene does not have this.
