Zebra Hairstreak Arawacus Separata (Manu Amazonia Peru)

 

The speciality of this striped butterfly is to let us believe that he has 2 heads, one in front and one behind, the one behind is in fact a tail with a false antenna moving slightly. The purpose of this is to trick the birds when staying on leaves by protecting his true head from their attacks and to escape from them.
