Euplagia quadripunctaria
de la famille des Arctiidae. C'est un papillon des bois clairs et des broussailles qui vole aussi bien le jour que la nuit, de début juillet à septembre. Une seule génération. Envergure de 52 à 56 mm. Pas de dimorphisme sexuel. En fait on sait peu de choses sur les habitudes de ce bel insecte à mi-chemin entre le papillon (diurne) et la phalène (nocturne).
The Jersey Tiger
Flies readily during day or night. No dimorphism between males and females.
Wingspan 52-56 mm.
Not much is known about this beautiful insect, half way between butterfly and moth.

Comme beaucoup d'insectes, il semble que cette écaille ait été infectée par un ver parasite, mais son comportement n'en semblait pourtant pas affecté.
This one seems to be infected by a worm parasite but it doesn't seem to affect its behavior!
