Description Monkey Puzzle Rathinda amor by kadavoor edit by böhringer.jpg |
English:
The
Monkey Puzzle
,
Rathinda amor
(Fabricius) 1775 is a small
lycaenid
or blue butterfly found in south Asia.
The butterfly has a weak flight, it stays low and does not fly for long without alighting. Its method of alighting is interesting - as soon as it lands, it turns around and waggles its tail filaments, it also sidesteps for a while - all this is apparently to confuse a predator as to which side is the head. This is a likely reason that the first naturalists may have named the species the Monkey Puzzle. Taken at Kadavoor , Kerala , India .
മലയാളം:
കുറ്റികാടുകളിലും മറ്റും താമസിക്കുന്ന ഒരു ചിത്രശലഭമാണ് ഇരുതലച്ചി. ഏഷ്യയുടെ തെക്ക് ഭാഗത്താണ് ഇവയെ കണ്ടുവരുന്നത്.

Rathinda amor
egy
Dél-Ázsiában
élő, kis termetű lepke. Ritkán és keveset repül; röpte gyönge és csapongó. A földre ereszkedve megfordul, hogy tapogatóra emlékeztető potrohfüggelékei fölmeredjenek; ezzel a trükkel próbálja megtéveszteni a rá vadászó ragadozókat. A felvétel a
Kerala

Kadavúrban
készült.
