チョウの識別のためのフィールドガイド

eBMSのフィールドガイドは、野外でチョウを簡単に識別するのに役立ちたいと考えています。チョウの種は科と属によって分類されており、それらは、チョウの種を簡単に識別するシンボルとなります。

 

これらの無料のフィールドガイドはすべて、コンピュータにダウンロードして印刷できます。

Aporia 地域ごとに最も一般的な種を選択し、チョウの専門家とBMS コーディネーターの協力によって、各フィールドガイドの種の数を減らしました。この有用な資料は、ボランティアの調査をサポートし、チョウのモニタリングを人々に呼びかけるのに役立つでしょう。以下の国または地域ごとに作成されたさまざまなフィールドガイドを参照し、複数の言語から適切なPDFをダウンロードしてください。次のフィールド ガイドがあります：

  • オーストリアAustria - Vienna & Burgenland
  • キプリスCyprus
  • ギリシャGreece - Corfu
  • イタリアItaly

Italy - per regions

Many countries in Europe are very rich in butterfly species and identifying butterflies is a real challenge. In Italy, there are around 290 species and the lack of identification guides was a problem. Together with the Italian Butterfly Group we divided Italy into climatic regions and selected the 72 most common species in each climatic area. We eventually produced 4 different Field Guides from specific regions: Padana plain, Mediterranean area, Apennines and Mediterranean Islands.

You can download the guides from here and print them directly.
