They are called the blue morpho butterfly because the top of the wings are blue. However, the bottom of the wings are brown with spots, so when they fly, they seem to disappear and appear, giving them a morphing effect.

∙ 11y agoMorphs are sometimes collected for scientific research or by private butterfly collecting enthusiasts, but more often they are collected so they can be raised in captivity to get stock to sell as decorations. There are many species of blue Morpho species, most of which are common and will not be affected by collecting (insects reproduce so fast and efficiently that collecting of specimens only has an effect on populations that are already very small or stressed) The biggest threat to Morphos is habitat loss.
