Otakárek ovocný - The scarce swallowtail (Iphiclides podalirius)
Otakárek ovocný je motýl z čeledi otakárkovitých.
Popis
Délka předních křídel: asi 4 cm
Rozpětí křídel
- samec: 60-80 mm
- samice: 62-90 mm
Velký, nápadný motýl.
Základní zbarvení je krémové až světle béžové, u starších motýlů bledne doběla.
Zužující se černé pruhy směřují od předního okraje předních křídel k oranžově lemovanému oku na vnitřním rohu zadního křídla. Kresba na předních a zadních křídlech na sebe navazuje.
V černém lemu vnějšího okraje zadního křídla jsou zřetelně poloměsíčité modré skvrny.
Zadní křídla vybíhají v dlouhé ostruhy, které u starších motýlů často chybějí.
První generace má oranžový pás na zadních křídlech.
Samička bývá o trochu větší než sameček.
Housenky jsou žluté či světle zelené s nízko posazeným bílým proužkem, který se táhne od hlavy až k zadečku.
Od podobného otakárka fenyklového se liší kresbou, světlejší základní barvou, oranžovými oky a delšími ostruhami.
Výskyt
Hojnější v jižní Evropě (např. Řecko, Chorvatsko, Španělsko, Portugalsko), kde se vyskytuje trochu odlišná forma.
Obývá nejčastěji slunné, jižní křovinaté stráně s výskytem ovocných dřevin a hlohů v teplých oblastech.
Vyhledávají dominantní výškové body v krajině, kde se mohou vyskytovat ve velkých počtech, často sedají na keře.
Za horkých dnů sají vodu z bláta a kaluží.
Život
Dospělci se živí nektarem z květů běžných stepních rostlin a také keřů a stromů. Zastihnout je můžeme také, jak sají vodu na okrajích louží a na vlhké půdě.
Samice kladou jednotlivá vejce na listy solitérních a dobře osvětlených keřů. Z vajíček se líhnou housenky, které jsou málo pohyblivé a většinou se zdržují přichycené vláknem na listu, kterým se živí. Starší housenky najdeme obvykle na větvičkách, kde se později kuklí.
Housenky žijí v červnu až srpnu na trnce a také na střemchách a ovocných stromech (třešních mahalebkách).
Přezimuje kukla.
Dvougenerační, imaga létají od konce dubna do června a od července do září. V teplých letech se může objevit i částečná třetí generace.
Dospělci jsou vynikající letci.
Stav
Je ohrožen zejména zarůstáním jeho typických biotopů, případně jejich přeměnou na zemědělské nebo lesní pozemky.
V ČR je chráněný a vzácnější než příbuzný otakárek fenyklový.
---------------
The scarce swallowtail is a butterfly belonging to the family Papilionidae. It is also called the sail swallowtail or pear-tree swallowtail.
Description
Wingspan:
- males: 60-80 mm (2.4-3.1 in)
- females: 62-90 mm (2.4-3.5 in)
Very large distinctive butterfly.
The background color of the wings is creamy white or pale yellow.
On the front wings there are six tiger stripes and wedge-shaped markings. At the outer edge of the hind wings there are blue crescent markings, with an oblong, orange spot at the back corner and a relatively long tail.
The newly hatched caterpillar is dark in colour with two smaller and two bigger greenish patches on the dorsal side; later they are greenish with yellowish dorsal and side stripes.
The summer chrysalids are green as a rule, the hibernating ones are brown.
This species is rather similar to Papilio alexanor and Protographium marcellus.
Distribution
Widespread in the East Palearctic realm and in most of Europe with the exception of the northern parts.
Its range extends northwards to Lower Lusatia and central Poland and eastwards across Asia Minor and Transcaucasia as far as the Arabian Peninsula, Pakistan, India and western China.
Habitat
Gardens, towns, countryside, fields and open woodlands.
Places with sloe thickets and particularly orchards.
In the Alps they can be found up to altitudes of 2000 m.
Status
In some years the scarce swallowtail is quite abundant. The scarce swallowtail is getting rarer as blackthorn bushes are being cleared.
Biology
Adults of Iphiclides podalirius fly from March to October. There are one, two, or three generations a year.
Caterpillars are polyphagous feeding on Crataegus, Malus, Prunus, Pyrus and Sorbus.
The caterpillars spin little pads on leaves and grip them firmly.
The caterpillars of the scarce swallowtail have been noted to leave silk trails from the permanent resting sites to feeding sites.
A number of hibernating chrysalids fall prey to various enemies.
The pupae manifest in two colours, green and brown, for the purpose of camouflage.
It is believed that the green pupa develop on food plants to avoid predation by small mammals and visual avian predators while the brown pupa develop on leaf litter to avoid avian predators.
