Most of the larvae of butterflies rely on the leaves, flower buds, and young fruits of plants, which will directly affect the growth and reproduction of plants in the area.

Their adults help pollination during the flowering period of plants, which helps promote the evolution and development of plants.

Whether it is larvae or adults, the number and quantity of the number determine the types and quantities of the creatures they eat in the area.

Take a simple example:

The butterfly of the gray butterfly family has a small head and a limited range of activities. Usually, it can only be "turned" near the host plant. Therefore, it can best reflect the richness of a species in a small area and is an important ecological indicator species.

For example, the butterflies of the butterfly family, from the appearance, like a moth more like a butterfly. Most types of tentacles are sharp, easy to recognize, and also have significant ecological indicators.

Speaking of butterflies, the evaluation of "face value" is an inevitable topic.

Among the 115 kinds of butterflies, the most recognized face value is the most "beating" of the family.

In the family of the Puch Die, the "king" of the face belongs to the Jinchang phoenix butterfly. Especially the female butterfly of the golden sheeton butterfly has five golden A -lines.

For example, the golden spotted butterfly is also known for simulating the toxic golden spots.

In addition, a pair of stinky glands will be extended on the head of the Supreme Famia family, which is usually considered to be the form of a small snake.

The larvae of the red beads and the butterflies also like to eat aristoltaurus. However, in Ningbo, the distribution of aristolttech is not much. Therefore, although they do not have natural enemies, they also face huge pressure on survival -there is no enough food source. Jade Paqua Peak Butterfly, Green Puzzle Butterfly, and Broadband Green Puzzle Butterfly like to suck the salt on the ground, but their larvae have their own diet preferences:

The larvae of the jade spontaneous and the butterflies like to eat the pepper peppercorns of the plants.
