phylum | Arthropoda | The Blood-red glider (Cymothoe sangaris) is a species of butterfly of the Nymphalidae family. It is found in Central Africa. Some authors believe the species should be split into separate species. They base this on morphological characteristics (mainly in the females) and DNA-research. The new species would be specialised in one food plant.
