Large Tortoiseshell Collection

The Large Tortoiseshell is a beautiful butterfly found in Europe and parts of Asia and has a wingspan of up to 8 cm, with the upper wings being orange-brown in color and marked with black spots. The underside of the wings is pale yellow, with brown markings on both sides. Its caterpillar feeds on nettles, hops, and other plants from the Urticaceae family. The adult butterfly can be seen flying from April to October during sunny weather. It prefers open meadows and woodland edges for its habitat. As its name suggests, it has a large shell-like pattern on its back which helps it blend into its environment when resting or basking in the sun. This species is currently listed as Near Threatened by IUCN due to habitat loss caused by human activities such as urbanization and agricultural intensification.
