Examples/!Animals/large_blue

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

The Large blue is Britain's rarest blue butterfly, a member of the Lycaenidae family, with a wingspan of 3.5-4.5 cm. It has a very complicated life cycle. The caterpillar will begin its life feeding on wild thyme. Miraculously, it will then be found by an ant (Myrmica scabrinadis), which carries the caterpillar into its nest. The ant does this because it is attracted by a sticky fluid which the caterpillar secretes. The caterpillar will then feed on the larvae of the ant until it pupates. The adult large blue then emerges in June or July. It can only be found in a few areas of South West England, however, it is in danger of becoming extinct. �*Text*362�Draw�Hilighter   Np	�Np
