It is a medium-sized butterfly common in temperate regions of Europe and Asia. The base color of the wings is rusty red, and there are black, blue and yellow eye-like spots on the wing ends. These eye-like marks are their most prominent feature. The wings are dark brown or black on the opposite side, with a good concealment color. The larvae feed mainly on urticaceae plants, while the adults feed on nectar, sap and decaying fruit. It plays an important ecological role in nature and is an important part of the ecosystem in many areas. The eye markings on the wings suddenly unfold when they encounter a predator, and this bluff can often scare off predators and protect themselves from attack.
