The
Southern Grass-dart
is a small butterfly that has a wingspan of only
about 22mm.
It can be found in hot tropical climates as well as cooler temperate ones. It
can fly very quickly. It likes feeding on the small flowers of herby plants. It
can be seen in Adelaide and surrounding areas where there is plenty of
green grass that hasn't been mowed. Its foodplants are the leaves of grasses
that stay moist and green during summer. They particularly like kikuyu and veldt grass. |
