First record of a bilateral gynandromorph of Danaus chrysippus (Linnaeus, 1758) from Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

Abstract

[eng] Danaus chrysippus (Linnaeus, 1758) was firstly reported in the Balearic Islands during the 1980s in Menorca, and in the 1990s in Mallorca. Since then several continuous reports have been documented over time. Here, in a new locality of distribution of the species in Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain), the first record of a bilateral gynandromorph of this species is described.
