In science, this beautiful butterfly was given the name Aglais urticae. Diurnal butterfly of the Nymphalidae family. This is one of the most common and most common butterflies. Probably everyone has met her.
The butterfly has a reddish-brown color, large black spots on the front wings, dark brown at the base. Along the edge of the wing are small semilunar protrusions with blue spots. Wingspan 4-5cm.
Urticaria can be found wherever there is nettle. Appears in early spring and flies all summer. Caterpillar of brownish color with thorns, trying to nettle. During the summer, 2-3 generations appear. Read about them meaning.
In autumn, males die, and fertilized females hibernate in secluded places (in houses, in attics), hence such an early appearance in spring.
If the urticaria in warm, clear weather begins to hide and look for places protected from the wind, wait for a thunderstorm in 2-3 hours.
