I believe this Butterfly to be a Morpho Peleides. If I am right the common name is Common Blue Morpho and the native location is Central and South America.
The Morpho tends to close its wings when it lands and most people simply do not recognize it while it is standing still.
I took this shot at the Butterfly House in Chesterfield, MO.
