What is the butterfly with eye spots on its wings to confuse predators?

The butterfly known for its eye spots on its wings is often referred to as the "owl butterfly," particularly species like the Caligo genus. These eye spots resemble the eyes of larger animals, which can confuse or scare off potential predators. This adaptive mimicry helps enhance their chances of survival in the wild. Other butterfly species, such as the Common Buckeye, also exhibit similar eye spots for predator evasion.
