the caterpillars are grey , with black bands between segments , and orange lateral lines . the head is black with white markings . the caterpillars have a pair long filaments on both the thorax and the last abdominal segment . the caterpillars feed on various jungle vines from the family

the wings of the adult butterflies are black with blue spots . they have a wingspan of about 7 cms . the butterflies may sometimes be seen scratching the leaves of special plants , including :

they appear to suck chemicals from the plants , even wetting dead leaves and then sucking up the moisture .

the eggs are bullet shaped and pale yellow . they are laid singly on young shoots of a foodplant .

the adult butterflies have been observed to live longer than five months . in australia , the butterflies perform mass migrations to the south in some years , making a delightful spectacle .

this page contains information and pictures about blue tiger butterflies in the brisbane area , queensland , australia .

blue tiger butterflies have pale blue patterns on black background on their wings . we took the above picture in macgregor park bush in mid - summer .

the blue tiger caterpillar body is banded with black , greenish - yellow and white rings , have two pairs of filaments .

their food plants are vines secamone elliptica and ischnostemma carnosum . the caterpillar usually found feeding underside of the leaf . their pupa is fresh green and shiny with some golden spots .

blue tiger butterflies migrate to brisbane from north queensland . we sometimes see one of them flying slowly among plants in our backyard and near by bushland . their flight is fluttering with gliding in between . but they know where to go , much like this review of garcinia knows where to go buy a quality cambogia supplement .

usually we can tell the age of a butterfly by its wing edges and colour . for the blue tigers in the above pictures . their wings colour faded and the edges were broken in different degree , we can tell the butterfly was in their middle and old ages . although the butterfly ' s wing edges were broken quite badly , theirs flying skill seems not affected .

blue tiger butterflies are not always seen in brisbane . from the reference books , they migrate to brisbane from north queensland .

however , we received email from georg horrolt - buddina , he advised that : blue tigers seem to migrate north every end of march and april , clouds of them fly right along the coastline from caloundra to noosa . i have observed this for approximate 6 years now . why do you say they migrate south to brisbane ?

in brisbane 2004 summer , the number of blue tiger is exceptionally high . from mid summer to late summer we can see plenty of them in the bush , flying along the highway and across our backyard . they were flying from west to the east .

the movement of the blue tigers are a bit confusing and need more observations .

we had the records breaking hot summer in 2004 queensland . this could be related to the high number of blue tigers found in brisbane .

we received email from david james - corindi beach : on 21 - 2 - 2004 , thousands of blue tiger butterflies visited my garden in coffs harbour . they were back again the next day but not as thick , and although a few were there about for 4 or 5 days . their numbers dropped rapidly . incidentally the temperature here on 21st was 44 degrees .

arunta perulata is a large cicada native to australia .

it is also known as the white drummer cicada .

the name floury baker was previously applied to this species , but that name is now specific to aleeta curvicosta .

the white drummer was first described in 1831 by félix édouard guérin-méneville as cicada perulata .

the average body length of the male white drummer is approximately 3.75 cm and the female approximately 3.72 cm .

the head is green with prominent dark red-brown markings and green midline along pronotum .

the eyes are a dark red-brown .

the thorax and abdomen are predominantly dark red-brown .

depressions on the body are covered with yellow velvety fur .

the prominent sac-like tymbal covers are white .

the wings are clear with reddish brown and yellowish veins , and measure up to 4.97 cm long in males and 4.84 cm long in females .

the white drummer has yellow-green legs marked with dark brown and black .

the white drummer make a constant rattle-like call , which can carry over long distances , singing during the day and at dusk .

it consists of a series of pulses emitted by the cicada at a rate of 65 per second , with each lasting 2.5-3.5 microseconds followed by an interval of 14 microseconds .

the frequency of the call is 5.5-6.5 khz with a weak harmonic at 12 khz .

like the related double drummer ( thopha saccata ) , its sac-like tymbal covers amplify its call .

the white drummer is found along australia 's eastern coastline from cooktown in northern queensland to narooma in southern new south wales .

it has also been collected from far northern cape york .

the preferred habitat of the white drummer is swampy forest and mangroves , with the cicadas perching on trees such as sheoak ( casuarina equisetifolia ) , swamp oak ( c. glauca ) , coast banksia ( banksia integrifolia ) and coast wattle ( acacia sophorae ) .

adults appear in december and january .

female cicadas lay eggs exclusively on live branches .

the atlas of living australia acknowledges australia ' s traditional owners and pays respect to the past and present elders of the nation ' s aboriginal and torres strait islander communities . we honour and celebrate the spiritual , cultural and customary connections of traditional owners to country and the biodiversity that forms part of that country .

this genus is closely related to thopha and contains two recognised species . both species are found in close proximity to the beaches of eastern australia . they are characterised by having large , pale timbal covers , which are covered by a white , dusty pubescence ( unless specimens are very worn ) .

distributed along the eastern coastal belt from the southern torres strait islands in queensland south to narooma in new south wales . the first adults emerge in november and may persist until april .

populations may be widespread in dune vegetation , such as she - oaks and banksias and in similar trees , as well as pandanus palms on headlands . in some areas , populations can inhabit mangroves , especially towards the western limit of intertidal marshes . on the islands of the capricorn group ( off the coast of rockhampton ) ,

spp . and can be caught without too much difficulty with the aid of a net .

a strong , continuous , motor - like rattle , sung sporadically during the day and most prominently at dusk .

coastally south from cooktown in queensland to urunga in northern new south wales . adults appear in november and populations may persist until may .

inhabits the mangroves growing closest to the beach . females oviposit ( lay eggs ) in the dune vegetation away from the mudflats . calling males tend to be scattered throughout patches of mangroves , especially the grey mangrove (

) . this species is often difficult to capture without a long - handled net .
