Peacock (Aglais io)
Nymphalidae

The Peacock (Aglais io) is a very easy butterfly to identify, it has brownish-red wings, with a large peacock-like eyespot which is thought to scare predators. It rests with its wings closed, showing the almost black, well-camouflaged underside. It is not very common in Corfu.
