$Distribution: Inachis io is a very common resident in the Netherlands. The Dutch population is sometimes supplemented by wandering individuals. The species occurs nearly all over the Netherlands, the butterfly being found in places with nectar-rich flowers in a wide variety of habitats.\nFood Plants: The larval food plant is Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica). The female butterfly lays her eggs on plants growing in the half shadow in damp places.\nFlying Season: Peacock Butterfly flies in one generation from mid-July until the end of August. It hibernates as an adult, and the butterflies fly from the end of March until the beginning of June.$

$The photo shows orange/yellow cosmos flowers and a butterfly called Argyreus hyperbius / Indian fritillary.\nNative to Mexico, cosmos sulphureus which is commonly called yellow cosmos is now grown all over including North America, Asia and Europe. This annual plant produces daisy-like flowers with flower colors ranging from yellow to orange to scarlet red. Orange cosmos normally blooms in summer and early autumn in Japan with butterflies circling around the flowers.$

$The chequered skipper or arctic skipper (Carterocephalus palaemon), not to be confused with the large chequered skipper, is a small woodland butterfly in the family Hesperiidae. This butterfly can live in grasslands. The upperside of the butterfly is brown with orange spots and on its underside the chequered skipper is orange with brown spots. Chequered skippers are found in Great Britain and other European regions, but seen locally in Japan and in North America. The size of the chequered skipper ranges from 19 to 32 mm with females being larger. In the 1970s, the chequered skipper went extinct in England due to the new management of the woodlands.\nDescription:\nThis butterfly has a wingspan of 29 to 31 mm. The uppersides of chequered skippers are dark brown with orange scales at the base of the wings and golden spots, giving it its English name of chequered skipper. The basic pattern on the underside is similar but the forewings are orange with dark spots, and the hindwings are russet with cream spots rimmed in black. The sexes are similar although females are generally slightly larger.\nHabitat:\nThough the chequered skipper is a woodland butterfly it can also be found in bogs, at the edges of streams, and at grassy forest openings . Chequered skippers can breed in open grasslands in Scotland. In woodland areas the breeding sites happen at the edges of rivers and the bottom of slopes. Though there is a small range in the areas the butterfly can live in, these areas tend to have a smaller range in seasonal and temperature range. The presence of the M. caerulea is really important in determining habitat in Scotland and in England the Bromus is essential. In North America, chequered skippers can be found around forest trails, forest edges, and open grassy areas. Even though the chequered skipper goes by arctic skipper it does not live in Arctic areas (source Wikipedia).\n\nThis Picture is made during a long weekend in the Eifel (Germany) in June 2019.$
