Summary description from Wikipedia:
Troides miranda
Troides miranda, the Miranda birdwing, is a birdwing butterfly that inhabits Borneo and Sumatra.
Troides miranda is a large butterfly with a wingspan ranging from 150 mm to 170 mm, with inconspicuously scalloped wings, black head and thorax and yellow abdomen. There is a sexual dimorphism of colour.
Males have black forewings with veins discreetly outlined in white in the postdiscal part, and yellow hindwings with black veins and a marginal border of black serrations.
The females, larger than the males, have brown forewings with white-edged veins, and brown hind wings with a small yellow central space veined with brown and a submarginal line of yellow chevrons.
