Notas do Editor

  1. Butterflies have existed far longer than we have. They first appeared 100 million years ago, whereas Man has been here for a mere five million years. They are found almost everywhere, from sea level to mountain top, from Arctic Tundra through the deserts of Africa and Asia, to the lush tropical regions where they are most abundant and brilliant. Butterflies come in a variety of shapes and sizes. The largest have wingspans of up to 300 mm (12 in), while the smallest pygmy moth has a wingspan of only 3 mm(0.1 in). And their colours are just as varied. In fact, no two butterflies are exactly alike. In this short presentation we will look briefly at the strange and wonderful life cycle of the butterfly.
