Bhutanitis ludlowi, the Ludlow’s Bhutan swallowtail, is a species of butterfly in the family Papilionidae, endemic to Bhutan. It belongs to the subfamily Parnassiinae subfamily which also contains the Apollo butterflies. Ludlow’s Bhutan Swallowtail (Bhutanitis ludlow) is the National butterfly of #Bhutan. It was originally discovered by the botanists Frank Ludlow and George Sheriff in Bhutan during 1933-1934. After 75 years in August 2009, Karma Wangdi, a #Bhutanese forestry officer, collected the first evidence – a specimen of B. ludlowi in the Bumdeling wildlife sanctuary, Trashiyangtse and proved that the species still existed.
