AnonymousFound a method of farming this for crowns. Bring Zoologist, of course - and if you're in base game, find a HR 999. Chances are they'll have the ingredients and you can borrow them from that player. It is possible to get two Phantoms in one run. Keep in mind the time of day will change the look of this bug. Bring a Ghillie Mantle to avoid larger monsters. Start in the Ancient Forest from the Northeast Camp (11). Head to the Pukei-Pukei nest and before you pass the tree ramp, take the left path. Hug the right wall and crawl under some branches to meet a stream. It will be separate from the Cobalts. Don't see it? Head back where you came from and go to the Pukei-Pukei nest. Walk to the left side corner of the nest.

I think it is likely that they don't spawn in master rank ancient forest! I wasted like 20 vouchers for zoomaster and haven't seen one, then I tried in high rank and found it on my second try. Idk probably I was just very very unlucky.

Found my Phantom Flutterfly during a rainy night, RH expedition, near the Pukey's nest.

make sure you have zoomaster food skill (or even felyne biologist might help). i've seen them in almost every situations except when there is a tempered elder on the map then i would just give up. the hunter notes says daytime but i've seen them during dawn/dusk/daytime/nighttime (might be influenced by the zoomaster skill). my current largest crown 50.67. areas: left side of pukei pukei nest + (very close to camp 11) camp 11 and go to the south west area on your map where there are 2 nitroshrooms close together with a small river between them.

can someone tell me how to add images here i feel like the image doesn't really show it's chromatic colors

Despite what the picture may suggest, they aren't green, but in fact have a prismatic shimmer as they fly about. It's also very difficult to see depending on what the lighting conditions are like, because they're very small - looked mostly like a little black speck when I caught it.
Spawns probably at any time of the day, unsure if related but I caught my smallest variant at sunrise.
