}} Melitaea nevadensis (or Melitaea celadussa var. nevadensis) is a species of butterfly of the family Nymphalidae. TaxonomyMelitaea nevadensis is often referred as a variety (probably) or subspecies of Melitaea celadussa. Formerly Melitaea celadussa was considered as a subspecies of Melitaea athalia (Rottemburg, 1775), but molecular studies (mitochondrial DNA) have determined that Melitaea celadussa is a different species of Melitaea athalia. These butterflies are distinct genetically and morphologically at the genital level.[1][2][3]DistributionMelitaea celadussa is present in south of Portugal and Spain. DescriptionIt has a wingspan of about {{convert|40|mm}}. These butterflies are golden yellow or orange, with fine black markings. BiologyCaterpillars feed on Plantago, Antirrhinum, Veronica, Linaria, Melampyrum, Digitalis and Pedicularis species.[4] External links
