We have chosen the Glasswinged butterfly to represent ecoNEW. It has evolved uniquely and now its forest habitat is under threat to climate change.

It represents the need for us to think strategically, live sustainably and preserve our ecosystem.

Glasswinged Butterfly
This butterfly’s most common English name is glasswinged butterfly, and its Spanish name is “mariposa de cristal”, which means “crystal butterfly”. The tissue between the veins of its wings looks like glass, as it lacks the colored scales found in other butterflies. The opaque borders of its wings are dark brown, sometimes tinted with red or orange, and its body is dark in color.
