বিৱৰণ

মতা সাধাৰণ গোলাপী পখিলাৰ পাখিৰ ওপৰৰ অংশ বেঙুনীয়া ক'লা বৰণীয়া হয়৷ আগফালৰ পাখি (Forewing)ত দীঘলীয়া বগা আঁচ ( adnervular streaks) কিছুমান থাকে৷ কিন্তু এই আঁচবোৰে কাষ দুটা স্পৰ্শ নকৰেহি৷ ইয়াৰ পিছফালৰ পাখিত কাষ দুটাৰ ওচৰত ৰঙা ঘূৰণীয়া ফোঁট থাকে৷ তাৰ ওপৰলৈ পাখিৰ মাজ অংশত দীঘলীয়া বগা ফোঁট (discal markings) কিছুমানো দেখা যায়৷

আচৰণ

It is the commonest of the large tailed butterflies of India and one of the most interesting butterflies for the Indian amateur naturalist to observe.The Common Rose is active much earlier in the mornings than most butterflies and remains so throughout the day until dusk. It flies just as readily in the shade as in the sun, and frequently visits flowers.

অনুকৰণধৰ্মিতা

The red body, slow peculiar flight, bright colouration and pattern of the wings are meant to indicate to predators that this butterfly is inedible, being well protected by the poisons it has sequestered from its larval food plant. It also emits a nasty smelling substance when handled to further enhance its unappealing qualities. Hence it is rarely attacked by predators, a strategy so successful, that edible butterflies have evolved to mimic it, the classical example being that of the female morph of the Common Mormon that is Papilio polytes, female form stichius.

খাদ্য

The Common Rose frequently visits flowers such as Lantana, Cosmos, Zinnia, Jatropha and Clerodendron. The butterfly occasionally also visits wet patches. In parts of Sri Lanka, the males are known to congregate and form a beautiful sight while mud-puddling.

জীৱনচক্ৰ

কণী

The female has been observed inspecting Aristolochiae plants and selecting healthy plants with verdant growth to ensure adequacy of food for its voracious caterpillars. It lays round and reddish eggs with fine black markings. The eggs are laid singly on top, the underside of leaves or even on shoots.

Caterpillar in Hyderabad, India

Caterpillar in Ranga Reddy district of Andhra Pradesh, India

The caterpillar is a beautiful velvety maroon colour and has a beautiful white band on a segment on its middle reminiscent of a belt or collar. It has numerous fleshy red-tipped white protuberances on the body. It is bulky and slow in its movements. It is a beautiful caterpillar.

লেটা

The pupa is brownish with various shades of brown and pink markings.

পলুৰ খাদ্য

The larvae feed on creepers and climbers of the genus Aristolochia, Family Aristolochiaceae and they sequester toxins such as aristolochic acid in their bodies. This makes the adults toxic to vertebrate predators such as birds and reptiles. Larval foodplants include:

• Aristolochia bracteolata
• Aristolochia indica
• Aristolochia tagala
• Aristolochiae griffithi
• Thottea siliquosa
