Abstract | Butterflies (Lepidoptera, Insecta) are among the best known and most admired insects. There is not a person who would not know them for one or the other characteristics: the "little gold coins" from shildrens songs, ancient silkworms are still treasured, the "Alpine Apollo" is the classical symbol of the beauty of Alpine valleys, while tropical butterflies with their unbelievably coloured wings are constant artistic inspirations, and even the trying moths are greeted with applause. | |
