    There are approximately 20.000 butterfly species worldwide, with Borneo being home to around 960, 81 of which are exclusive to the island. In comparison, Peninsular Malaysia is home to just over a thousand butterfly species, with only 21 being endemic. Among the notable butterflies found in Borneo is Malaysia's national butterfly, the Rajah Brooke's Birdwing (Trogonoptera brookiana), discovered by Sir Alfred Russel Wallace and named after James Brooke, the Rajah of Sarawak from 1841 to 1868. The Kinabalu Birdwing (Troides andromache) is also of significance as Sabah's state butterfly, a distinction declared by the State Minister of Tourism, Culture, and Environment in October 2023. This declaration illustrates the state government's dedication to conserving biodiversity and promoting sustainable nature tourism. Borneo is a haven of unparalleled biodiversity, showcasing a vast array of flora and fauna, including numerous exclusive butterfly species. This pictorial guide features 158 captivating and inspiring butterfly species and three subspecies, aiming to raise awareness and highlight the remarkable diversity of tropical butterflies, from large and exotic specimens to those commonly found in Borneo.
