A nationally protected butterfly, the Diana (Zerynthia polyxena), is present on the platform mainly in the riparian zone, where several stations of Aristolochia rotundifolia, its host plant, have been observed. The recurrent observation of eggs of this species attests to its reproduction on the site. Several zones have been set aside to protect the species&#8217; development cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-0defc3be wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"213\" height=\"320\" data-tippy-content=\"BUTTERFLY\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sainttropez.aeroport.fr\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/BUTTERFLY-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4006\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sainttropez.aeroport.fr\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/BUTTERFLY-3.jpg 213w, https:\/\/www.sainttropez.aeroport.fr\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/BUTTERFLY-3-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 213px) 100vw, 213px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1920\" data-tippy-content=\"le flamb\u00e9\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sainttropez.aeroport.fr\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/le-flambe.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4026\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sainttropez.aeroport.fr\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/le-flambe.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.sainttropez.aeroport.fr\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/le-flambe-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.sainttropez.aeroport.fr\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/le-flambe-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sainttropez.aeroport.fr\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/le-flambe-1152x1536.jpg 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BIODIVERSITY BIODIVERSITY AT AN AIRPORT &#8211; yes, but why?
