Caterpillars are the larval stage of members of the order Lepidoptera. As with most common names, the use of this term is actually inconsistent, because sawfly larvae are also often referred to as caterpillars. Both lepidopteran and symphytan larvae have an eruciform body shape.

Flowers and butterflies form a perfect partnership in sustaining ecosystems. Flowers provide nectar, while butterflies act as pollinators, ensuring the reproduction of countless plant species. This vital relationship supports biodiversity, enhances food security, and maintains healthy ecosystems. Protecting both flowers and butterfly habitats is essential for a thriving, sustainable planet.Location: Noida, Uttar Pradesh (India)

Caterpillars of this genus have highly dangerous toxic hairs. Some species have powerful venoms, such as Lonomia obliqua, known as ‘killer caterpillars,’ which can cause blood clotting disorders, leading to bleeding, bruising, headaches, general discomfort, kidney failure, and even death.

Zerynthia polyxena, the southern festoon, is a butterfly belonging to the butterfly family Papilionidae.Description:The southern festoon can reach a wingspan of 46–52 mm. The females have slightly longer wings, usually lighter colored than males. The basic color of the wings is yellow, with a complicated pattern of several black bands and spots. On the edges of the hindwings they have a black sinuous line with a series of blue and red warning spots to deter potential predators (aposematism). The body is dark brown and bears red patches on the sides of the abdomen. This species is rather similar to, and can be confused only with, the Spanish festoon (Z. rumina). The differences are in the presence of blue on the hind wings of Z. polyxena and the relatively lower amount of red on its forewings compared with Z. rumina. The ranges of these two species overlap only in southeast France. The caterpillars of Z. polyxena are up to 35 millimeters long. They are initially black, then they are yellowish with six rows of fleshy orange and black spikes all over the body. Habitat:These rare butterflies can be found in warm, sunny and open places such as grassy herb-rich meadows, vineyards, river banks, wetlands, cultivated areas, brushy places, wasteland, rocky cliffs and karst terrains, at an elevation of from 0 to 1,700 meters above sea level but usually below 900 meters.Distribution:Z. polyxena is widespread in the middle and southern Europe (southeastern France, Italy, Slovakia and Greece) covering all the Balkans and reaching the south of Kazakhstan and the Urals. Although they are widespread they occur only locally (source Wikipedia).This Picture is made during a Vacation in Bulgaria in May 2018.
