Today on #WeeklyIntegradivSp we meet the Green Hairstreak (Callophrys rubi), easily recognized by its vivid green underwings.

Its green color is not due to pigment but to tiny wing structures that scatter light - a rare example of structural green in nature!

After spending some weeks disconnecting in the Azores, it's time to get back to work with 100% motivation!

In particular, Flores Island made me emphasise the danger of exotic species on islands. I am really concerned about the impact of Cryptomeria japonica and Hedychium gardnerianum on the island.
