ww wmmmtmm su monarch butterflies soar at the height of summer tribune august 2 1989 all f art briggsjuoe a correspondent perhaps one of the most en chanting winged creatures we en counter outdoors at this season of the year is the butterfly a delicate creation of variegated color a shimmering example of intricate design if the humm ingbirds are known as the jewels qje the birdworld the butterflies could well be called the cathedral windows of the insect kingdom some common species such as the monarch even have heavy vein marks in the wings sug gestive of the leaded dividers in these religious stained glass casements jrvith nearly 700 species of but terflies occurring in north america the casual observer certainly will never tire of repeti tion however a most important factor in identifying the more conspicuous of these various sun- loving soarers is to know the dif ference between them and their nocturnal counterparts the moths apart from the fact that moths are active for the most part at night there are other visual differences that separate them from butterflies as an ex ample the antennae protruding from the head of a moth are feathered whereas those same feelers on a butterflys head are wirelike and have an elongated knob on the outer end the bodies of moths are also plump and fbrry in contrast to the generally slender thorax and abdomen of the butterflies because butterflies are members of the insect family its worthy to note that they preceded our most ancient forebears by spme 350 million years while some have adapted their forms to new earthly conditions others have not altered a whit in those millions of intervening years their adaptability makes them the dominant life form anywhere on this planet the areas where the more noticeable insects like butterfles are absent are the places where man has discourag ed their presence by removing the desirable habitat insects however like flys mosquitoes cockroaches and wasps still per- sist even in these concrete jungles although butterflies have no means to repulse attack they do possess a whole bag of tricks for concealment and escape many have protective color patterns that appear to be a leaf a piece of bark or a patch of lichen on which they alight still others have imitation eye spots that either frighten their enemies or lure them into thinking they are a much larger creature such as an owl even the caterpillars of butterflies have camouflaged coats spiny bristles or a repulsive taste to predators in the case of the familiar orange and black monarch butterfly this awful taste is derived from the larva feeding on the milkweed plant but if the monarch butterfly is known as an undesirable food source by birds most of the others fall prey to a whole host of hungry predators frogs toads snakes birds and mice are cons tant visible enemies of butterflies and their larvae while web spiders take an annual toll parasitic flies and wasps lay their eggs on butterfly larvae that when hatched live on the doomed host caterpillar it is on ly their tremendous reproductive ability that allows us to witness any of these spectacular feather- light flyers each summer when you notice a large but terfly swooping and soaring gracefully above the nearby groundcover take note of its col or pattern if its orange and black with heavy veinlike wing markings you can be almost cer tain its a monarch the same butterfly that each autumn travels over 2000 miles to the mountains of mexico to spend the winter just another truly remarkable example of the power and ability of a small in sect
