The eggs are laid by the female groups on the tip of the leaves, mingling with the environment. After a fortnight larvae out of the egg. The newborn larvae, black rush to eat the egg shell, this being your first food until they start making the leaves of the euphorbia. Since the plants are highly toxic euphorbias and this butterfly species directly leverages the same substances for their own protection. After the pupa stage within the earth, the adult butterfly emerges, with gray wings.

This moth is easily distinguishable from others in this region by a vaguely skull-shaped pattern on its thorax. A. atropos is also very large, with a wingspan of 90–130mm. This moth has the ability to emit a loud squeak if irritated. The sound is produced by expelling air from its proboscis. It often accompanies this sound with flashing its brightly marked abdomen in a further attempt to deter its predators. It is commonly observed raiding beehives for honey at night. Unlike the other species of Acherontia, it only attacks colonies of the well-known Western honey bee, Apis mellifera. It is attacked by guard bees at the entrance, but the thick cuticle and resistance to venom allow it to enter the hive. It is able to move about in hives unmolested because it mimics the scent of the bees.]]> Adriana Galveias (fotógrafo)]]> Papilio machaon) – catterpilar]]> Adriana Galveias (fotógrafo)]]> Papilio machaon) – catterpilar]]> Adriana Galveias (fotógrafo)]]>
