Absolutely.
Utilising
The ephemeral blue's almost imperceptible body is believed to be a desperate evolutionary strategy attempting to compensate for the dark blue and white wings, so readily visible to predators against the clear Italian skies.
With no precursors in the fossil record, it may be the first confirmed case of unintelligent design.
The Ephemeral Blue Admiral plays a key role in pollinating the spaghetti crop, still grown today by artisan farmers in much the same way as in the past, relying entirely on knowledge passed down through families (and generous local/ EU subsidies to a number of those Italian families who continue to follow traditional ways).
Of course, this premium product is expensive, and most "spaghetti" on our supermarket shelves is the manufactured variety.
