What are known as woodland butterflies?

Posted by Keshav Jain on


Because of the variety of food sources, more species of butterfly are found in woodlands than in any other habitat.



      Some species of butterfly can be found flying at a low level in shady woodland clearings, while others live high among the treetops. Other species of butterfly live along woodland edges, and in areas where people have cleared forests.


    Some of the examples are The Acadian Hairstreak, the Purple hairstreak, the speckled wood and the comma etc. other examples are the White Admiral, large Tortoiseshell, and the silver-washed Fritillary.
