Описание: The Gatekeeper butterfly (Pyronia tithonus) is a member of the subfamily Satyrinae in the family Nymphalidae and most commonly found in South and East Britain, limited to coastal areas of south and southeast Ireland. The Gatekeeper prefer warmer weather and may be seen in the gardens along hedgerows, perched next to gateways.
The Gatekeeper butterfly (also called Hedge Brown) is orange with brown edges and two large brown 'eye spots' on its wings, which deflect the attacks of the birds, so it can keep open its wings when resting.
Larvae feed on meadow grasses. The adults are feed primarily by nectar on flowers of blackberry, red clover, thistles, thyme, marjoram and water mint.
