Bowker’s Widow (''Dingana bowkeri'') is a butterfly of the Nymphalidae family. It is found in South Africa, in the eastern Cape, Lesotho and Richmond and Cradock in the Cape province. The wingspan is 50–55 mm for males and 48–54 mm for females. Adults are on wing from November to February (with a peak from December to January). There is one generation per year〔Woodhall, S. Field Guide to Butterflies of South Africa, Cape Town:Struik Publishers, 2005.〕 The larvae probably feed on various Poaceae species, probably including ''Merxmuellera'' species. Larvae have been reared on ''Pennisetum clandestinum''. ==Subspecies== *''Dingana bowkeri bowkeri'' (north-eastern Cape, Natal, Lesotho, Transvaal, Orange Free State) *''Dingana bowkeri bella'' van Son, 1955 (central Cape: Richmond) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dingana bowkeri」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
