| Comma butterfly
The Comma
(Polygonia c-album) is a species of butterfly, common in the United
Kingdom and with a distribution across Europe and temperate Asia to
Japan and south to Morocco. Similar species are found in the United
States and Canada. It has a white marking on its underwings resembling a
comma. The wings have a distinctive ragged edge, apparently a cryptic
form as the butterfly resembles a fallen leaf. The caterpillars are also
cryptic, resembling a bird dropping.
In the 19th century the British population of comma butterflies crashed,
and by 1920 there were only two sightings. The cause for this decline
is unknown, and from about 1930 the population recovered and it is now
one of the more familiar butterflies in Southern England, and is now
resident in Scotland and in North Wales.
