Six-spot burnet

Zygaena filipendulae

無害對人無害。不用擔心。

吃了會中毒吃：植物有毒（碰或吃會中毒），不是有毒液

The six-spot burnet is a day-flying moth with dark green wings marked by six bright red spots. It lives in meadows and grassy places across much of Europe and parts of Asia. Its bright colours warn birds and lizards that it is toxic.1

有毒還是有毒液？有毒液的動物會用咬或螫把毒液注入身體。有毒的動物則是碰到或吃下去會有害。這種動物是有毒的（碰或吃會中毒）。

怎麼認出牠

Forewings are dark metallic green with six vivid red spots1
Sometimes the spots are merged together, or they are yellow or black1
Hindwings are red with a blackish fringe1
Wingspan is 30 to 40 mm, and the sexes look similar1
Adults fly on hot, sunny days from June to August1
Larva is plump and hairy, usually pale green with rows of black spots1

常被誤認為： It can be confused with the five-spot burnet, especially when the spots on its forewings have merged together.1

毒素力量

吃了會中毒

只有被吃下去時才有害。

牠對人有多危險？

對人的危險: 輕微跟蜜蜂螫差不多或更輕微。對人基本上無害。

牠害怕時會做什麼？

When attacked, it releases a liquid containing cyanide, and its bright colours warn predators such as birds and lizards that it is toxic.1

如果有人碰了或吃了牠

如果有人吃了牠，或吃了之後出現症狀：立刻打緊急電話或打給毒物諮詢中心。

一定要先打緊急電話（112、000、911）。這是一般急救指引，不是醫療建議。急救基本知識

注意安全

絕對不要碰、抓或捉弄野生動物，就算是很小的動物，就算牠看起來在睡覺或已經死了也一樣。
給牠空間。如果遇到了，保持冷靜，慢慢往後退，讓牠自己離開。
如果你碰了或吃了牠：不要揉眼睛或摸嘴巴，把手洗乾淨，並且就醫。

牠不是想來抓你。牠的毒只是為了不讓別的動物吃掉牠。更多安全知識

值得知道

小知識

Cyanide, a poison, is present in all stages of its life cycle.1

It is a day-flying moth, which is unusual for moths.1

Its bright colours are a warning signal, called aposematic colouring, to predators.1

Its larva builds a papery cocoon on a grass stem, where it pupates in early summer.1
