Description
Hi Friends,
These tiny butterflies are about 1 cm. tall.
I have searched so long for the name, but without success.
So if anybody knows...?
Of course everyone recognizes the Hoverfly, and the Tansy.
Latin name : Tanacetum vulgare.
Dutch : Boerenwormkruid.
Photo taken 3 weeks ago in our garden.
Thank you so much for your visit!
Thanks to Andrea I now know the name : Anthophila fabriciana.
English: Nettle-tap.
Dutch: Netel-mot.

beautiful fly mimic and butterflies. I do not know their name.sorry
What an amazing picture is this dear friend....Stunning...thanks a lot...
These flowers must be the buzz round the garden!
Not in my book either Jacomina but I suspect that this is a moth, Andrea will know! Your picture is superb.
It is a crowded happening. Never seen so much guys in one shot. Great capture. Nice shot. Brava
Very nice capture:)
Maybe Andrea will know the name... I don't know, sorry! The photo is stunning, great details and colours! Excellent shot! :)
natures larder, full of activity, a lovely picture
Wonderful capture, colors and mood, Mies!!!
Very cool shot, love all the activity going on there.

I think these are moths, as Jeff says, and I will look them up in my new book tomorrow! What a great find, Mies!
Looks like they are moths, They might be Mediterranean Flour Moths. Superb macro of this group, beautifully captured! :)
Mies, this is a wonderful capture of the tiny little butterflies on this lovely plant
WOW What a gorgeous shot of tiny moths and a hover on sooo lovely flowers :-)
Gewoon wonderbaarlijks, hoeveel insecten er op zo een bloem al te zien zijn. Ik net nog gaan fietsen en deze bloemen nog gezien. Een puur avontuur als je ziet hoeveel dieren op sommige bloemen te vinden zijn.
Wonderful shot of the busy crew. Amazing colors and lighting. Stunning looking flowers the intense yellow is very attractive.
Fantastic capture of these moths/butterflies and the hoverfly!

Quite a catch to get so many insects on the plant!
Fantastic capture.
Exellent macrofotografie. fijn werk om naar te kijken.
That was a stroke of luck, Jacomina - not only one little moth - but 4!!!! and a hover-fly to boot! what a catch - your patience must be endless! take care, BB (did you get all my info on the 'bone density' stuff, I mailed to you?)
What a fabulous photograph! So many creatures all in one place. Beautiful!
Very nice closeup Jacomina. I would also say that this are moths but I don't know it.
