Das Landkärtchen (Araschnia levana) ist der einzige heimische Tagfalter, der von Generation zu Generation seine Farbe und Musterung komplett wechselt: Im Frühjahr schlüpfen leuchtend gelb-braun gefärbte Schmetterlinge mit zalhreichen schwarzen Flecken, die Sommergeneration hingegen hat die Grundfarbe schwarz mit weißen Bändern und gelblichen Flecken.

Der Name des Falters begründet sich auf die Zeichnung der Flügelunterseiten, die mit einem Netz von Linien überzogen sind und daher an eine Landkarte erinnern Landkärtchen aus der Sommergeneration

The name of the butterfly is based on the pattern on the underside of the wings, which are covered with a network of lines and are therefore reminiscent of a map Map Butterfly from the Summergeneration
