The butterfly has been declared as ''endangered'' by the US Federal Government. It is a subspecies of Boisduval's Blue (''Aricia icarioides''). == Description == The endangered Mission Blue has a wingspan of about . Larvae are extremely small and rarely seen. The males' top wing grades from ice blue in the center to deep sky blue (misregistered as turquoise/cyan to violet by most photographic equipment, the wing color carries no hint of green or purple, strictly capturing an enthralling spectrum of purest, clearest, richest, brightest blue) exhibiting a dazzling iridescent fluctuation in range under direct, full sunlight. Black margins on the upper wing sport "long, white, hair-like scales." A constellation of jet-black dots (misregistered as dull gray by most photographic equipment) frames the extremities of the ventral surface, its pattern adroitly complimenting the wing shape thrown into spectacular relief against the shimmering silvery pearlescent background, with a fascinatingly muted hint of dark ice blue bleeding faintly up from the body and permeating the veins throughout for the palest, most delicate of emphases. Body shape, eyes, antennae, and appendages possess it of a uniquely exquisite poise. A positively riveting species done nothing like any sort of justice by pictures. Males' body is dark-blue/brown.〔(Mission Blue Butterfly ), Species Account, USFWS, Sacramento Office〕 Females' upper wings are dark brown, but otherwise mirror males'.〔 The larvae will only feed on the leaves of the three host lupine plants (''Lupinus albifrons'', ''Lupinus formosus'', and ''Lupinus variicolor'') native to their habitat. The plants are necessary for survival for the Mission Blue. Thus, the butterfly's fate is closely tied to that of the three species of lupine as the plants provide food and shelter for the butterfly in its larval stage. The adult Mission Blue drinks the nectar of a variety of flowers, many in the sunflower family, using its long proboscis which extends from the underside of its head.〔(Mission Blue Butterfly ), Wildlife Field Guide, National Parks Labs〕 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「Mission blue butterfly」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
