The proboscis of a butterfly is a long, flexible feeding tube that is used to suck up nectar from flowers. It is made up of two parts: the galeae (singular: galea), which are two long, slender tubes that are fused together, and the haustellum, which is a muscular tube that extends from the galeae.
The proboscis of a butterfly is coiled up when the butterfly is not feeding. When the butterfly wants to feed, it uncoils the proboscis and inserts it into the flower. The haustellum then contracts, drawing the nectar up into the butterfly’s mouth.
The proboscis of a butterfly is a very important adaptation that allows them to feed on nectar. Nectar is a sugary liquid that is produced by flowers. It is the main source of food for butterflies.
