Description

Nella foto di stasera una piccola farfalla , molto carina , che non rifiuta mai qualche foto , è abbastanza facile da avvicinare , non va seguita , basta aspettare che si avvicini e si posi . In the picture, this evening, a small butterfly, very pretty, who never refuses a few pictures, it's quite easy to approach, should not be followed, just wait for approaching and positive. Lycaena phlaeas From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Small Copper, American Copper, or the Common Copper (Lycaena phlaeas) is a butterfly of the Lycaenids or gossamer-winged butterfly family. The upperside forewings are a bright orange with a dark outside edge border and with eight or nine black spots. The hindwings are dark with an orange border. Some females also have a row of blue spots inside the orange border and are known as form caeruleopunctata. The undersides are patterned in a similar way but are paler. The black spots on the forewings are outlined in yellow and the dark colouring is replaced by a pale brownish, gray. The hindwings are the same brown/grey colour with small black dots and a narrow orange border. The caterpillars (larvae) are usually green, but some have a purple stripe down the middle of the back and along each side. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lycaena_phlaeas Good evening and good week Thanks for the comments and the favourites of previous image
