Papilionidae (scientific name: Papilionidae) is a family within the superfamily Papilionidae of butterflies.  In the lower classification, there are 3 subfamilies, about 26 genera, and about 600 species [2].  Most of the swallowtail species are medium to large butterflies. Most of them have gorgeous and brightly colored markings on their wings. They are gorgeous in appearance, fly quickly, and have an elegant posture. They are quite eye-catching. Among them are the largest butterflies in the world - the Alexander Birdwing. , the genus Swallowtail contains the smallest swallowtail butterfly.  The hind wings of swallowtail butterflies usually have a tail process, so they are also called Swallowtail Butterfly. The hind wings also have only one hip vein, so the abdomen is exposed when the wings are closed, which is the main feature of this classification.
This beautiful and elegant butterfly is a change from a pretty scary caterpillar, it takes a few days to process a caterpillar that was initially so frightening into a beautiful butterfly, that is the power of God that is extraordinary.
This is a fairly scarce resident, with permanent populations in the southern part of the province of Limburg. However, the last decennia, the Butterfly is to be seen over a great part of the Country.\nIt ids mostly found on rough, herb-rich grasslands, ruderal vegetation, and sometimes in vegetable gardens.\nVarious Apiaceae serve as larval foodplant, in particular Daucus carota, but also Angelica sylvestris and Foeniculum vulgare.\nThe species flies in two generations and hibernates as a pupa.\nFlying Season: May and August\nDistribution: Europe\n\nThis Picture was made in The “Weerribben” (Overijssel, the Netherlands) in August of 2021.
