ʻO Apollo kahi butterfly, i kapa ʻia ma muli o ke Akua o ka nani a me ka mālamalama, kekahi o nā lunamakaʻāinana kupaianaha o kona ʻohana.
Wehewehe
ʻO ke kala o nā ʻeheu o kahi butterfly makua mai ke keʻokeʻo a i ka kirimona māmā. A ma hope o ka puka ʻana mai ka kōpena, melemele ke kala o nā ʻēheu o Apollo. Aia kekahi mau kiko ʻeleʻele (ʻeleʻele) ma nā ʻeheu luna. ʻO nā ʻeheu lalo he mau ʻāpana ʻulaʻula a puni me kahi outline pouli, a ʻo nā ʻeheu lalo he ʻano poepoe. Uhi uhi ʻia ke kino o ka pepe i nā huluhulu liʻiliʻi. Pōkole iki nā wāwae, uhi pū ʻia hoʻi me nā huluhulu liʻiliʻi a loaʻa i ke kala krima. Nui nā maka, noho i ka hapa nui o ka ʻaoʻao ākea o ke poʻo. Antennae he lāʻau-like.
Nui ʻino ka ʻenuhe o ka Apollo butterfly. ʻEleʻele ia i ke kala me nā ʻulaʻula ʻalani-ʻalani a puni ke kino. Aia kekahi mau lauoho a puni ke kino e pale iā ia mai nā mea ʻino.
Kahi noho
Hiki iā ʻoe ke hālāwai me kēia butterfly nani kupaianaha mai ka hoʻomaka o Iune a i ka hopena o ʻAukake. ʻO ka nohona nui o Apollo nā ʻāina mauna (pinepine ma nā ʻāina limestone) ma nā ʻāina he nui o ʻEulopa (Scandinavia, Pinilana, Sepania), nā kula Alpine, Lūkia waena, ka ʻaoʻao hema o nā Ural, Yakutia, a me Mongolia hoʻi.
He aha ka mea e ʻai ai
ʻO Apollo kahi butterfly diurnal, me ka piko nui o ka hana i ke awakea. ʻO kahi butterfly makua, e like me nā butterflies kūpono, hānai i ka nectar o nā pua. ʻO ka papaʻai nui ka nectar o nā pua o ka genist Thistle, clover, oregano, groundwort maʻamau a me ka cornflower. I ka ʻimi ʻana i ka meaʻai, hiki i kahi butterfly ke lele i kahi mamao a ʻelima mau kilomika i kēlā me kēia lā.
E like me ka hapanui o nā butterflies, hānai ʻia ma o ka proboscis coiled.
ʻAi ka ʻenuhe o kēia butterfly i nā lau a momona loa. Ma hope koke o ka hatching, hoʻomaka ka ʻenuhe e hānai. Ma hope o ka ʻai ʻana i nā lau a pau o ka mea kanu, neʻe ia i kekahi.
ʻEnemi kūlohelohe
He mau ʻenemi ka Apollo butterfly i ka nāhelehele. ʻO ka hoʻoweliweli nui mai nā manu, nā nīnū, nā pule pule, nā rana a me nā dragonflies. ʻO nā punawelewele, nā moʻo, nā hedgehogs, a me nā meheu he mea hoʻoweliweli i nā butterflies. Akā ʻo ka nui o nā ʻenemi e hoʻopiʻi ʻia e kahi kala ʻulaʻula, kahi e hōʻike ai i ka hoʻoweliweli o ka pepeke. Ke ʻike ʻo Apollo i ka makaʻu, hāʻule ʻo ia i ka honua, e hohola ana i kona mau ʻeheu a hōʻike i kona kala pale.
Ua lilo ke kanaka i ʻenemi ʻē aʻe no nā pepepe. ʻO ka luku ʻana i ka nohona kūlohelohe o Apollo e alakaʻi aku ai i kahi emi nui o ka heluna kanaka.
ʻIkepili Hoihoi
- Aia ma kahi o ʻeono haneli mau ʻōpala nā Apollo butterfly a hoihoi nui i nā poʻe kūlohelohe o kēia au.
- Me ka hoʻomaka o ke ahiahi, ua komo ʻo Apollo i loko o ka mauʻu, kahi e noho ai ʻo ia i ka pō, a peʻe hoʻi mai nā ʻenemi.
- I ka hihia o ka makaʻu, ʻo ka mea mua a Apollo e hoʻāʻo nei e lele, akā inā ʻaʻole holo pono kēia (a pono e hoʻomaopopo ʻia ʻaʻole lele maikaʻi kēia mau butterflies) a ʻaʻole e makaʻu ke kala pale i ka ʻenemi, a laila hoʻomaka ka pepe e ʻānai i kona ʻū i ka ʻeheu, e hana ana i kahi kani hoʻoweliweli.
- Kūkulu ka ʻenuhe i ʻelima mau manawa i ka manawa holoʻokoʻa. Ke loaʻa nei i kahi kala ʻeleʻele me nā kikoʻula ʻulaʻula.
- Hoʻoweliweli ʻia ʻo Apollo i ka make ʻana a ke ʻimi ʻepekema nei nā ʻepekema i kēia ʻano i mea e mālama a hoʻihoʻi ai i ka nohona kūlohelohe o kēia ʻano.
