Inachis io
European Peacock

Phylum: Arthropoda
Class: Insecta
Order: Lepidoptera
(unranked): Rhopalocera
Superfamily: Papilionoidea
Family: Nymphalidae
Subfamily: Nymphalinae
Tribe: Nymphalini

Species: N. io
Binomial name
Nymphalis io(Linnaeus, 1758)

The European Peacock (Nymphalis io), more commonly known simply as the Peacock butterfly, is a well-known colourful butterfly, found in temperate Europe and Asia. It is the only member of the subgenus Inachis, which is included in Nymphalis genus, (the name is derived from Greek mythology, meaning Io, [the daughter] of Inachus). It should not be confused or classified with the "American peacocks" in the genus Anartia; these are not close relatives of the present species. The peacock butterfly is resident in much of its range, often wintering in buildings or trees. It therefore often appears quite early in spring.

foarte frumoasa imagine. singurul repros ar fi ca este o idee buna sa lasi mai mult spatiu in fata fluturelui decat in spatele lui.

Salutare Mariana,
fiecare cu ..."preferatul" sau. ( tu pt. Joska, Horia pt. Ivan ) Excelent macro cu niste culori superbe.
Dar nu in ultimul rind ... sa-ti traiasca "tinarul" care de iesri este cu un an mai tinar. Sanatate multa va doresc din toata inima!!!
O zi frumoasa,
Adrian

Hello Mariana !
I discover your gallery for the first time, and I must admit I am deeply impressed by the quality of your pictures ! You are a very talented photographer ! I like this one best, because the butterfly is one of the most common but also one of the most beautiful species I have ever seen. His pose, with the wings wide open, allows us to fully admire his beauty. I also like the carpet of pink flowers on which he is sitting, it's making the most beautiful BG. Very well done !
Valérie.

hello Mariana
this is my dream species and it also occurs in Northern Turkiye. Unfortunately I cant find it in several trips, even it common in there. you are lucky twice to see it and to capture it with a perfect close-up. sharp focus, POV/DOF, exposure, light using perfect. splendid colors and wonderful composition with pinky flowers. thanks for sharing this beauty. I will add it to my favourite, with your permission.
have a nice evening
Ahmet
