Papilio machaon
My mother found the caterpillar in our garden, and than I raised her until it become an imago. This butterfly species belongs to the Papilionidae family and the genus Papilio. A very beautiful sighting!
Garden in a semi-urban area.
Its distribution includes the Palearctic region and North America.
