Abstract

Mating behavior of Peacock Pansy, Precis almana was observed. The results of observations are as follows: 1. Encounter of the female and the male, 2. Pursuiting, 3. Response of the female for the pursuiting male (flying and alighting), 4. Courtship (pattern of courtship and sense of smell), 5. Copulation, 6. Separation. Concerning the courtship in stage 4 there are some different patterns. Also it was confirmed that a female which has finished copulation behaves itself to refuse copulation against further pursuiting and courtship of a male.
