[En-Es] Dynamine
Hello friends
Hola amigos.
One afternoon last December, while I was watering the plants, this little butterfly came along.
Una tarde, el diciembre pasado, mientras regaba las plantas, llegó esta pequeña mariposa.
I was amazed to see an unknown species again.
Me maravillé de ver de nuevo una especie desconocida.
The truth is that I had not seen it before and when I searched for its identification on the Internet I found that it belongs to the genus Dynamine, of the Nymphalidae family.
La verdad es que no la había visto antes y al buscar su identificación en Internet encontré que pertenece al género Dynamine, de la familia Nymphalidae.
Its scientific name is Dynamine anubis anubis, but there is a similar one identified as Dynamine coenus or "white drop" in naturalist.
Su nombre científico es Dynamine anubis anubis, pero hay una similar identificada como Dynamine coenus o "gota blanca"en naturalista.
A similar specimen is also reported with the name Dynamine theseus or "White Sailor".
También se reporta un ejemplar parecido con el nombre Dynamine theseus o "Marinero blanco".
It had a wingspan of about 2 centimetres and white wings with copper-brown and blue edges and markings. Its body and legs were also white.
Medía aproximadamente 2 centímetros de envergadura, tenía alas blancas con bordes y manchas marrón cobrizo y azul. El cuerpo y las patas también eran blancas.
All the time she was perched with her wings folded and her head down.
Todo el tiempo estuvo posada con las alas plegadas y la cabeza hacia abajo.
From time to time it would flap slowly as if it were about to fly away, but I didn't have time to capture the moment.
De vez en cuando aleteaba lentamente como para salir volando, pero no tuve tiempo de capturar el momento exacto.
This encounter was in the afternoon, unlike those I have with other species that are seen closer to midday.
Este encuentro fue en horas de la tarde a diferencia de los que tengo con otras especies que se dejan ver en horas más cercanas al mediodía.
I have never seen another butterfly like it again.
No he vuelto a ver otra mariposa igual.
All photos were taken by me with my Samsung Galaxy A 15 smartphone.
