Illustration of the Dark green fritillary butterfly, Argynnis aglaja. It's cut to white and shows the butterfly facing right, with wings folded, showing the underwings. These are spotted with silver and green, although the background colour is beige. This green explains the butterfly's name. The body is brownish with yellow and green compound eyes and brown antennae tipped with orange. You can just see a suggestion of the butterfly's long tongue, curled up. This #naturalscienceillustration was competed for a china ware company along with 5 other #naturalhistory illustrations of #entomology subjects, and will feature on 6 or 7 designs of homeware.
This is my #sciart #illustration of a #Darkgreenfritillary #butterfly #Argynnis (or #Speyeria) aglaja.
They have orange upper wings, the green is only on the underside (with by silvery spots)
The food plant is pansies & violets. They're strong fliers, so can be hard to see clearly unless at rest.
