La reproducción de las mariposas es un proceso fa

La reproducción de las mariposas es un proceso fascinante. Uno de sus pasos es el apareamiento que podemos observar en la foto. El macho y la hembra juntan los extremos de sus abdómenes para intercambiar gametos. En este proceso los huevos quedan fertilizados en el interior de la hembra para posteriormente ser depositados en alguna superficie como la de una hoja en el bosque. La protección de estos polinizadores es importante para la conservación de los bosques. FCAT apoya a la conservación de los bosques del Chocó ecuatoriano en donde ocurren estos fantásticos procesos naturales.

Butterfly reproduction is a fascinating process. One of its steps is the mating that we can observe in the photo. The male and the female join the ends of their abdomens to exchange gametes. In this process the eggs are fertilized inside the female and then deposited on some surface like a leaf in the forest. The protection of these pollinators is important for the conservation of forests. FCAT supports the conservation of the forests of the Ecuadorian Chocó where these fantastic natural processes occur.
