Zerynthia rumina, the Spanish festoon, is a butterfly belonging to the family Papilionidae. It is a widespread species in Iberia and frequents most habitats. Distribution
Male brimstone butterflies can withstand cooler temperatures and are able to fly after just 4 months in hibernation. Female brimstone butterflies need warmer climates to survive, and therefore are in hibernation longer. The male butterflies have a longer life span as they are more resilient to a wider range of temperatures, unlike the female.
The common brimstone is one of the longest-living butterflies, with a life expectancy ranging from 10 months to a year. [10] [11] Due to its hibernation and life cycle, it has one generation per year. [10] Development from the laid egg to the emergence of the imago is approximately 50 days. [11]
