🇬🇧 The Green Hairstreak (Callophrys rubi) keeps its wings closed at rest, showing only the green underside with its faint white markings. It is an easy species to identify, the green colour is unique among Corfu butterflies. Males and females are very similar.

🇬🇷 Το Green Hairstreak (Callophrys rubi) κρατά τα φτερά του κλειστά σε ηρεμία, δείχνοντας μόνο την πράσινη κάτω πλευρά με τα αμυδρά λευκά σημάδια του. Είναι ένα είδος που αναγνωρίζεται εύκολα, το πράσινο χρώμα είναι μοναδικό στις πεταλούδες της Κέρκυρας. Τα αρσενικά και τα θηλυκά μοιάζουν πολύ.
