Plebejus argus

Licenidi (Lycaenidae)
Nome comune Argo
E' una farfalla di 20-30 mm di apertura alare. Le ali nel maschio sono di colore blu-violetto, bordate di nero; nella femmina sono marroncine. Il bruco è dotato di processi cutanei che secernono un liquido zuccherino di cui si nutrono le formiche, con le quali convivono; si incrisalida nei formicai. In Italia centrale compie 2 generazioni all’anno e gli adulti sfarfallano in maggio-giugno e agosto. Sverna come uovo. E' comune in tutta l’Italia dalla pianura alla montagna, fino a circa 2000 m di quota. Il bruco è polifago, ma predilige le Leguminose.

Quattro anni d'età e non li dimostra per nulla. Hai fatto un gran lavoro, considerati luce e POV.

Very lovely macro shot of this butterfly with good bokeh effect and a superb light control.

The glow of light on the wings and body is just incredible. Very good sharpness. Master's work.

Bravo Silvio!
Che foto! Si riesce a vedere il bordo delle ali...sembrano contornate da frangette di stoffa.
Bella questa farfalla. Le ali, così maculate, sembrano quelle di un pavone.

Ciao Silvio,


Ahhh, the Maestro of butterflies strikes again!
A fine subject in a fine composition,
skillfully captured with the finest of details...
Well done on macro, the accurate DoF isolates
the subject well and the wings have this
fine silky-crisp texture!

Greetings,

Sergio
