   In the North of Spain, Burgos Province, there is above the canyon of Ebro River a plateau known as Paramo de Massa. It is about 1000 meter above see level, very windy, with cold winters. In this steppic landscape flies the subspecies Parnassius apollo marteni (Eisner, 1956). |

Are they ex-pupae? It is one of my favourite ssp, I like that deep red colour.

Iroki,
Thanks to play the game !
One of the females is not a marteni from Burgos area... this is the first of the nine females.
It comes from Sierra de Albarracin,Teruel Province,ssp hispanicus.
This summer was the first and only time I met Parnassius in Spain.
