The Map Butterfly (Araschnia levana) is so named because the wings of its spring generation are marked a bit like a road map. However, this butterfly is famous for having a highly dissimilar summer generation, which has largely black wings with a single white band across. The summer generation resembles a tiny White Admiral more than it resembles its orange map-winged spring generation. It is quite common in Continental Europe but is absent from Britain. It was introduced to both Monmouthshire and Herefordshire in 1912 but only lasted a couple of years. A number were seen in Dorset in 2014 but it seems generally agreed that these too were introduced rather than genuine natural colonists. They are cousins of the Red Admiral but much, much smaller. But their caterpillars similarly feed on nettles. I photographed this spring brood male in Estonia where they seemed to be quite common.

Its scientific name Araschnia also describes the reticulate wing pattern of the spring brood. It comes from the Greek word "arakhnion" for spider's web. Levana was an obscure Roman goddess.

I was astounded by Bill Rankin's map of Chicago's racial and ethnic divides and wanted to see what other cities looked like mapped the same way. To match his map, Red is White, Blue is Black, Green is Asian, Orange is Hispanic, Gray is Other, and each dot is 25 people. Data from Census 2000. Base map © OpenStreetMap, CC-BY-SA

I have to make this public in order to use it for a group. Please pay no attention to this.

Edit: This needs to remain public I suppose, so you might as well pay attention to it. :P

Anyway, this is just a map I drew awhile ago (not the background though, that's edited) I'm using it as a background for a WIP group. And I suppose it needs to remain public to work, so yeah, here it is.
