Attacus atlas F. sent on August 02, 2015 (20:04) by Lucchin Fabrizio. 34 comments, 2596 views.

, 1/60 f/16.0, ISO 500, tripod. Specie: Attacus atlas

L'atlante o farfalla cobra (Attacus atlas (LINNAEUS, 1758)) è una falena appartenente alla famiglia Saturniidae, diffusa nelle foreste tropicali dell'Asia, in particolare nelle Filippine, in Thailandia ed in Malaysia. Descrizione: Con i suoi 30 cm di apertura alare, è una delle specie di insetto più grandi del mondo e deve il suo nome al particolare disegno delle sue ali, che ricorda i colori e la forma del cobra. Biologia: L'adulto vive soltanto pochi giorni, durante i quali non si nutre ma sfrutta le riserve accumulate durante lo stadio larvale e si dedica soltanto all'accoppiamento, che può durare un giorno intero. Successivamente la femmina depone fino a 200 uova, che si schiudono dopo circa 12 giorni. Dopo la schiusa, i piccoli bruchi iniziano a nutrirsi e continuano a crescere per un periodo di 90 giorni, dopodiché, raggiunte le massime dimensioni, iniziano la metamorfosi, racchiudendosi in un bozzolo di seta e usando generalmente una foglia come sostegno, per trasformarsi al suo interno in crisalide e infine fuoriuscirne dopo un mese come esemplare adulto. È considerata una delle specie tropicali più belle, ed è relativamente semplice da allevare in cattività. I bozzoli di Attacus atlas, formati da numerosi fili di seta, vengono utilizzati per ottenere un filato piuttosto resistente denominato "seta Zagara".

Hi Pier, thank you very much for your compliment, I was lucky enough that the female is quiet enough when it is born, waiting for a male to be fertilized, so I managed to make a series of shots before she left. Good afternoon hello Fabrizio

Hello Jarmila, meanwhile thanks for the congratulations for the photos. Where do I find this night butterflies? For the Attacus Atlas, a friend of mine gave me chrysalis, for samia cinthya I raised caterpillars, for saturnia pyri, I found it in the grove behind the house. I wish you a good evening, hello Fabrizio
