Description
தமிழ்: வெந்தய வரியன் (Danaus chrysippus, plain tiger) என்பது நடுத்தர அளவுள்ள, ஆசியாவிலும் ஆப்பிரிக்காவிலும் காணப்படும் பட்டாம்பூச்சியாகும். இது வரியன்கள் குடும்பத்தையும் டனாய்னே துணைக்கும்பத்தையும் சேர்ந்த பட்டாம்பூச்சியாகும். இதன் போலியான நிறத் தோற்றம் பல இனங்கள் போன்று காட்சியளிக்கின்றது.
English: Danaus chrysippus, also known as the plain tiger or African queen, is a medium-sized butterfly widespread in Asia, Australia and Africa. It belongs to the Danainae subfamily of the brush-footed butterfly family Nymphalidae. Danainae primarily consume plants in the genus Asclepias, more commonly called milkweed. Milkweed contains toxic compounds, cardenolides, which are often consumed and stored by many butterflies. Because of their emetic properties, the plain tiger is unpalatable to most predators. As a result, the species' coloration is widely mimicked by other species of butterflies. The plain tiger inhabits a wide variety of habitats, although it is less likely to thrive in jungle-like conditions and is most often found in drier, wide-open areas.
