The article presents information on the $15,000 gynandromorph Ornithoptera priamus poseidon exhibited at the annual Bug Fair of the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, California. The fair, held in June 2006, was attended by more than 10,000 people. The gynandromorph Ornithoptera priamus poseidon has a female shape but the coloration and patterning of both sexes. The fair is both an educational event and an outlet for commercial insect farms, dozens of which have sprung up in tropical areas from Costa Rica to Papua New Guinea.
