幻紫斑蝶(die)是偏南方種類,它的翅面在(zai)陽光下會(hui)發出(chu)紫色熒光,這在(zai)美學上具有很高價值。該蝶(die)可取食(shi)夾(jia)竹(zhu)桃Neirum idnicum和小葉榕Ficus microphylla。

雄雌色彩斑紋基(ji)本(ben)相似,但(dan)雌蝶前翅后(hou)緣平直,無性(xing)標斑。
幻(huan)紫斑蝶喜產(chan)卵(luan)于夾(jia)竹桃和小(xiao)葉(xie)榕的葉(xie)面上,散產(chan)。
初孵幼蟲從卵殼出來(lai)后(hou),先(xian)取食卵殼,然后(hou)再取食夾竹(zhu)桃或小葉(xie)(xie)榕(rong)嫩葉(xie)(xie)。幼蟲一般從葉(xie)(xie)片邊緣開始取食,咬(yao)食成一個小圓孔。初孵幼蟲有(you)時會(hui)取食鄰處的卵。幼蟲集體飼(si)養有(you)自相殘(can)殺現象(xiang)。
蛹(yong)在羽化前變為淡黑色,半個小時(shi)(shi)內可以(yi)羽出。成蟲羽出后約(yue)1一(yi)2個小時(shi)(shi)才展翅完全(quan),此時(shi)(shi)活動能(neng)力很強,可喂10%的蜜糖水補充營養。
幻紫斑蝶是以成(cheng)蟲越(yue)冬。在(zai)廣州地區,成(cheng)蟲在(zai)3月(yue)(yue)下旬(xun)至4月(yue)(yue)上旬(xun)開(kai)始活動(dong),在(zai)6一(yi)10月(yue)(yue)份(fen)時歷期為23一(yi)30天(tian),到(dao)11月(yue)(yue)下旬(xun)成(cheng)蟲不產卵,進人越(yue)冬狀態。每(mei)年6一(yi)8個(ge)世代。
寄主:夾竹桃Neirum idnicum和小(xiao)葉榕(rong)Ficus microphylla
