Where delicatas live


From the distance we see the hill where delicatas were found
This field belongs to a farm and they plant tobacco in there.
In between this field and the hill there is a mountain creek, it can quickly flood after a heave summer rain and  prevent you from reaching there... but there is a bridge along the road but the way is more than duplicated.
Well the yellow circle shows the white compact  delicata form habitat and the red one show where the delicata type were found, it is a bushy area.
the white ones live under full sun exposition.
The shadowed type form was shown  by me and Holger from Hamburg Germany.
To the left of this hill passes the creek and Tomba Bodes hill is right there. Both hills are separated by this creek and delicatas populations are very very different from one another. Those from Tomba Bodes are much smaller and the vary in color from white to almost black. These must be shown!
