Das Taubenschwänzchen – ein Schmetterling mit Wanderlust

Taubenschwänzchen sind nicht standorttreu, sondern befinden sich immer auf Wanderschaft. Manfred Ströhle aus Weiden ist Schmetterlingsexperte. Er weiß, woher die kleinen Schwärmer kommen und wohin sie ziehen.

von Christa Vogl

Das Taubenschwänzchen trägt seinen Namen, weil sein Hinterteil dem Schwanz eines Vogels ähnelt.
