Sphinx oleander sent on 26 Agosto 2014 (19:19) by Lucchin Fabrizio. 38 comments, 6107 views.

, 1/320 f/11.0, ISO 500, tripod. Specie: Daphnis nerii

La Sfinge dell'oleandro (Daphnis nerii) è probabilmente uno dei Lepidotteri Eteroceri più belli d'Europa. Il disegno così variegato delle ali, dove il colore di fondo verde contrasta, in varie gradazioni e sfumature, con diverse tonalità di rosa e viola, abbinato alla forma aerodinamica tipica delle falene di questa famiglia, rende queste sfingi qualcosa di surreale: le linee di contrasto sembrano studiate minuziosamente per favorire il mimetismo dell'animale tra le fronde di Oleandro, pianta ospite principale delle larve, dove il verde delle foglie, di tonalità variabile secondo l'età delle stesse, si mescola con il rosso-violetto dei boccioli fiorali.

Hello Gianni. in fact it has two false eyes, as he also did the caterpillar, are to throw off predators. Live it looks really nice velvet. It 'a migratory butterfly and does not live in my part (prov. Vicenza) luck was that a sphinx has spawned on oleanders in the garden of my friend Alessandro expert on butterflies, caterpillars from which they were born and then these beautiful butterflies .
Thanks also to D. Roberto, and Roberto Olpi 1977 for compliments.
