This research has been carried out in 2005, in Devrek. For collection of plants and larvae from the field and for breeding larva in laboratory, identification of insects and preserving technique modern methods were used. In our investigations in spring 2005, interestingly we found Libythea celtis (Laicharting, 1782)’s larvae were feeding on foliage of Alnus glutinosa subsp. glutinosa although Celtis sp. and essentially Celtis australis are foodplant of this butterfly.
