The Stained Glass Butterfly (SGB) is a category of fauna.

The unique wing pattern & coloration which defines the SGB, as seen on the A. Redrohoe species. Appearance may vary slightly.

The Stained Glass Butterfly (SGB) is a subset of the Rhopalocera fauna genus. This subset is highly sought after by explorers due to its rarity: SGBs are considered to be one of the most rare fauna, along with diplos and Greater Mushroom Beetles.

The SGB subset was first defined by 7101334, swampcastlenms, and Old_school_rpg and (unlike the various Genera) is a player-created category, not an actual part of the game code. The first known discovery of a SGB was on July 14, 2017 by Armondo Vin Davood on the NMS Facebook Group.

A Stained Glass Butterfly is defined by the recurve shape of the wings, winglets at the rear of the body, and the translucent pattern of colors on the main wings. A normal butterfly may have either a solid color or pattern of colors without the recurve shape or "stained glass" appearance.
