The world's largest butterfly The world's largest butterfly spreads its wings up to 30cm, and is found in Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea in the southwest Pacific Ocean. His name is big bird wing butterfly. According to the data, it was first discovered in a dense forest. It flies around the treetops, so it is not easy to catch it. Later, someone shot it down with a bow and arrow. The smallest butterfly in the world is the blue-gray butterfly, with a wingspan of only 1.3cm, which is now collected in Xishuangbanna, China. The smallest butterfly in the world is the blue-gray butterfly, with a wingspan of only 1.3cm, which is now collected in Xishuangbanna, China. Butterflies Living at the Highest Place The highest point of Pamirs in China is more than 7,000 meters. Mountaineers have seen a purple-sauce-colored little gray butterfly in a glacier crack about 6,000 meters above sea level. The butterfly living in the northernmost part is at 83 degrees north latitude, already in the Arctic Circle, only more than 700 kilometers away from the center of the North Pole. The climate here is very cold, and now you can still see gray butterflies flying there. The butterfly that flies farthest is a kind of butterfly called monarch butterfly. From June 165438+ 10 to March of the following year, millions of people flew to the "Butterfly Valley" 200 kilometers west of Mexico City, with a distance of more than 5,000 kilometers. The most expensive butterfly1996101At an auction in Paris, France on October 24th, a butterfly named Big Bird's Winged Butterfly was finally sold at a high price of 1800 USD. This is the first time in the world to auction such an expensive butterfly specimen. The butterfly with the slowest wing vibration is called wing vibration. Most butterflies vibrate 460 ~ 636 times per minute, but Papilio butterflies vibrate only 300 times per minute, with an average of 5 times per second. Butterflies taste with their feet. Generally, animals use their mouths to judge the taste of food, but the taste organs of butterflies grow on their feet. After catching a butterfly, close its wings, carefully clamp it with a shelf and let it starve for two or three days. Then, touch its tarsal bone with a cotton ball dipped in sugar water, and you can see that the butterfly will soon stick out its long beak and be ready to suck food. If you directly open its curled beak with a needle and immerse it in sugar water, the butterfly will immediately retract its beak, and even if it is hungry, it will be indifferent to sugar water. How many small eyes does a butterfly have? A butterfly has a pair of bright compound eyes, which are composed of more than 15 thousand small eyes. They are all hexagonal wedge-shaped, with a big top and a sharp bottom, and the edges of each small eye are closely attached. Where do butterflies sleep Most butterflies spend the night alone, but some butterflies like to live in groups. Different kinds of butterflies have different sleeping places: Papilio likes to sleep at the top of dead branches; Papilio citri mostly lives under the leaves of plants; Screen butterfly sleeping cliff; Many butterflies just lie on the grass. The enlightenment of butterflies to space scientists A pearl butterfly can keep its body temperature at about 34 degrees Celsius. It changes the angle at which the sun shines on it by adjusting the scales on its wings. In space, because there is no air, the spacecraft will be directly exposed to strong sunlight. On the irradiated side, the temperature will rise sharply, and on the back of the sun, it is very cold. The drastic change of temperature is very harmful to the health of astronauts. Therefore, some people proposed to imitate the pearl butterfly and cover the ship with a movable scale. When the horizon is close to the ship, the ship gets the most heat, and when the horizon is erected, the heat gained decreases accordingly. As long as the tilt angle of the scale is changed, the spacecraft can maintain a constant hull temperature. A butterfly that can stand still in the air like a hummingbird. The smallest butterfly in China is called Swallow Butterfly. Its wings are only 2 cm wide and have two slender tail processes, much like the tail of a swallow. What force makes it suspended in mid-air? It turns out that its wings vibrate rapidly, changing the airflow and giving it buoyancy, while the swinging of its two tails enables it to master the balance. The chimera butterfly of Yin-Yang butterfly is called Yin-Yang butterfly, which is said to be only one in ten thousand. Its formation is closely related to genetics, which has been discussed in academic circles. There is an explanation for reference: the sex of butterflies is determined by the "sex chromosome" in the nucleus. There are two Z chromosomes in male butterfly cells. There is a Z chromosome and a W chromosome in female butterfly cells. The Z chromosome determines the male and the W chromosome determines the female. When the fertilized egg still has the ZW chromosome, in the early cell division, if a cell loses the W chromosome due to unexpected reasons, half of the cells have the W chromosome and the other half have no W chromosome. The first half develops into a female and the second half into a male. In this way, a butterfly will become a "chimera" of half male and half female. A butterfly has the characteristics of two butterflies at the same time. A strange butterfly was found in Sichuan. The wings and stripes of its front and left rear wings are exactly the same as those of a normal Papilio Paris, but the wings and stripes of its right rear wing are exactly the same as those of Papilio Paris. This biological feature of wing asymmetry between different species appears on a butterfly, which is extremely rare. Anti-drug butterfly Peru has a kind of silver butterfly larva, which likes to eat cocaine bushes. Any cocaine bush it eats will soon dry up and die. The Peruvian authorities used this butterfly to stop drug dealers from secretly planting cocaine shrubs, and the effect was very good. Drug dealers used many methods to destroy them, but to no avail. It is reported that "Argentina has a big black butterfly. People stung by this butterfly will leave erythema on their skin. After a quarter of an hour, the red dot swelled and blisters appeared, and the pain was unbearable. " This is a distorted report, because adult butterflies are siphon mouthparts, not sucking mouthparts. Is there an 8 kg butterfly? Some people say that a big butterfly weighing 8kg and length 1.9m was found in the United States. The big butterfly makes a sound like a small helicopter. This anecdote probably came out on April Fool's Day. Unique Butterfly Pattern American photographer sandvik actually photographed a full set of Latin letters from A to Z and Arabic numerals from 0 to 9 on different butterfly wings. There are many digital butterflies in the mountainous areas of tropical America at an altitude of 800m, and there are 89, 88, 98, 80 and other digital patterns on the reverse side of their wings. Poisonous butterflies are a group of poisonous butterflies endemic to South America. Because it is poisonous, it often flies freely in the forest. Poisonous butterflies have a strong smell. You can smell it within ten steps, and you will follow your own smell at night and return to your original habitat. Papilio longwings, the butterfly with the longest wing shape in the world, is a representative butterfly in Africa, and its wing length is often more than 20 ~ 23 cm, which is longer than that of the male butterfly. Adults are highly toxic, and it is said that they can poison six cats. Butterflies with anticancer activity have identified five compounds: Isoguanine, 6- Hydroxypurine, 2,6-2-Hydroxypurine, Uric acid, etc. Among them, isoguanine is called anticancer active ingredient, which is mainly distributed in wings. The Mystery of Butterfly's "Love" Nowadays, people find that butterflies "date" with the help of light signals in the process of "love". According to the entomologist of Yokohama University in Japan, both male and female butterflies have a very sensitive "photoreceptor" to transmit and receive the signal of "dating". The most interesting thing is that not all females will respond to the light signal "call" of the male butterfly. Once these light signals are "isolated", it means the interruption of "love". Further careful study found that about 30% of females like to have this "temper". In this case, the male butterfly will never send out a second signal. After being rejected by his girlfriend, Xiongdie immediately looked for a new "love object".
