(Madagascar Ornithology).
BUTTERFLIES AND MOTHS AS WELL AS OTHER INSECTS AS is the case in all tropical countries, Madagascar possesses a large variety of insect life, and among these are a considerable number of the most beautiful of all insects, Butterflies. The greatest number of species are of course found in the lower and hottest regions of the island, but there are a good many also in the upper and central provinces. Hovering over the surface of a small river which we had to cross by the
...rude bridges of former times, I have seen hundreds of a large blue and black papilio butterfly, so that they were very conspicuous even from some distance. As one comes near a patch of damp sand at the edge of the stream, a little cloud of small butterflies, blue, white, buff and yellow, is often seen drinking up the moisture, or gambolling in the air. Dr. Vinson, a French naturalist, who came up to the capital some years ago, said : " In the misty mornings in the Madagascar cold season every insect sleeps or hides itself under the damp foliage, but as soon as the sun shines out, the footpaths through the forest and the beds of the torrents are peopled with bright-coloured and light-flying butterflies.
