''Godyris zavaleta'', the Zavaleta Glasswing, is a species of butterfly of the Nymphalidae family. It is found from Costa Rica to southern Peru. The habitat consists of lowland and mid-elevation rainforests at altitudes up to 900 meters. Adults visit the flowers of ''Epidendrum panniculatum''. Adult males sequester pyrrolizidine alkaloids from ''Heliotropium'', ''Tournefourtia'', ''Myosotis'', ''Eupatorium'', ''Neomiranda'' and ''Senecio'' species, making the species toxic to deter predation by birds.〔(Butterflies of the Amazon and Andes )〕 The larvae feed on ''Solanum'' species (including ''Solanum brenesii''), but have also been recorded feeding on ''Cestrum nocturnum''. ==Subspecies== *''Godyris zavaleta zavaleta'' (Colombia) *''Godyris zavaleta baudoensis'' Vitale & Rodriguez, 2004 (Colombia) *''Godyris zavaleta caesiopicta'' (Niepelt, 1915) (Costa Rica, Panama) *''Godyris zavaleta eutelina'' Brévignon, 1993 (Guyanas) *''Godyris zavaleta gonussa'' (Hewitson, 1856) (Colombia) *''Godyris zavaleta huallaga'' Fox, 1941 (Peru) *''Godyris zavaleta matronalis'' (Weymer, 1883) (Ecuador) *''Godyris zavaleta petersii'' (Dewitz, 1877) (Colombia) *''Godyris zavaleta rosata'' Vitale & Rodriguez, 2004 (Ecuador) *''Godyris zavaleta sosunga'' (Reakirt, ()) (Honduras) *''Godyris zavaleta telesilla'' (Hewitson, 1863) (Ecuador) *''Godyris zavaleta zygia'' (Godman & Salvin, 1877) (Costa Rica to Panama) 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「Godyris zavaleta」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
