Looking a deeper look into a butterfly's life, part 2

Hello Guys... How are you today?

Continued from previous page...

In the previous post, it has been explained how the struggle of a butterfly lives and struggles in its civilization, and how to enjoy every journey of its life which has a certain uniqueness in wading and makes itself a beautiful shaped insect with extraordinary charm.

So that he is able to get out of his original world where there are many amazing unique stories so that he comes out of something that is neatly wrapped and becomes a beautiful and very sweet figure.

The life that comes and goes is one of those natural occurrences that every butterfly soul must go through. This is what becomes the center of human attention in studying and examining every flapping movement of its wings from a small and weak egg to a beautiful figure that is admired by everyone, but in the end it is also said to be a weak animal (if viewed from a physical point of view).

However, he becomes a strong soul when in any particular phase as has been described extensively in the previous posts.

This means that he is physically weak, but strong in the soul of life, even though his life is short, he is able to create his generation and is able to make himself a figure that is useful for life in his environment, both plants or animals who are always by his side even though always hunting as eggs, larvae, cocoon or butterfly-shaped.

The butterfly you see in my post is one of the many species found in our region of Indonesia. Some people here call it Kupu-kupu Harimau Biasa while in common language scientists are as The Plain Tiger or often referred to by Indonesian scientists as Danaus chrysippus.

Why is it called the Kupu-kupu Harimau Biasa? Because our people always give a name that has examples of other well-known animals, it just so happens that the body pattern or features resemble that of the Sumatran tiger.

So, based on a pattern that resembles the pattern of a tiger, its name is attached to the mention of everyone here.

Of course you are very familiar with terms in non-verbal language that often occur in an area in any speech that is easily understood and understood by every level of cognitive understanding of everyone. And this law always applies to every situation and place in this hemisphere.

I myself am very amazed to see one of these species, and according to my knowledge and see for myself it is one species that has a strong physical resistance to flight, even though the strands or layers of scales are weak but capable, doing or flapping its wings in long distance travel. To be sure, I myself don't know the certainty or distance that can be covered, but I measured it from the flying activity around the reservoir in our village which covers about 5 hectares. I myself saw him, he always made a kind of patrol flight that started from early morning until just before sunset around the reservoir in search of his partner. Even though between his flights, he took a break for a while on any planting leaves that grew in the reservoir area, but only needed a few minutes to rest then he immediately carried out his activities as before.

The uniqueness that can be seen from my vision is that it has a medium wing size which means that when compared to each species it is a butterfly with medium wings that is neither large nor too small, the point is that if we take a photo from a distance of 2 meters its body can still be seen and capture by every smartphone of medium type too, and the image results are also satisfying.

Then another uniqueness is that it has extraordinary advantages over other butterfly species, because it has the potential for poison to stick and stick to each wing of its scales, why? So that this butterfly is reluctant to be hunted by any butterfly predators, except for animals that have anti-toxins from their own bodies so it is safe to consume this form butterfly's body.

The potential for its wings to support some of the poison which then melts into its body began when it was still in its second phase when it became a larva. The mother is very good at choosing leaves that contain poison when consumed by her child in the form of larvae, and then the larvae are also able to control the poisonous substances in their body. So that it becomes her favorite food in the meat in her life as a larva, without harming her body or dying due to the influence of poisonous substances possessed by the leaves chosen by the parent when laying eggs.

When female butterflies are about to lay eggs, they choose leaves that contain substances such as Adenia SP which are dangerous for human consumption, in our area it is often seen in every wiedurie plant that has a poisonous sap that causes paralysis of butterfly predators. In general, here we always take starch or sap from the leaves for external medicine, such as pulling out the prominent flesh or Geutut (in Acehnese) that grows in the skin area. The sap will break down the extra flesh tissue that often grows and sticks to a person's body due to bad bacteria.

In general, the poisonous substances that have attached to each butterfly's scales are found in many female butterflies and to find out the species is very easy because it is seen on each smooth, saw-shaped wing tip around every wing stroke or shape. If you see it with a tool such as a microscope it will see very sharp colors, or you can see it with a camera that has a high zoom capacity.

Although it has fragile and weak wings, it is able to adapt in several location conditions, such as dry areas, plantations and also in coastal areas. In Indonesia, this butterfly is very common and can be seen in several areas in the country such as :

SequenceTerritoryDivisioan
1Aceh, Sumatera, Kalimantan, JawaWestern Indonesia
2BaliThe middle part of Indonesia
3Sulawesi, Maluku, PapuaEastern Indonesia

This means that if it is seen in the table above, it is very clear that, this butterfly inhabits all remote areas of Indonesia and also has a ranking that is in the top 10 in our region, especially Nanggroë Aceh Darussalam.
