Pieris rapae sobre Lonicera implexa - a photo on Flickriver

In Greek mythology, the Pyerides were the daughters of Piero, King of Macedonia, and Evipe.

They were nine young maidens, according to Lycander: Colimbade, Linge, Céncride, Cisa, Claoris, Acalántide, Nesa, Pipo and Dracóntide. Proudly believing themselves to be especially gifted with an exceptional talent for music, song and poetry, they challenged the Muses for supremacy in song.

The Muses were very Musey and of course they won; the Pyerides were transformed into magpies, keeping their chattering and rambunctious spirit.

In time, either because of the fact that he was born on Mount Piero or because of his victory over the daughters of Piero, the two names Muses and Pyerides tended to be identified.

En la mitología griega, las Piérides eran las hijas de Píero, rey de Macedonia y de Evipe.

Eran nueve jóvenes doncellas, según Licandro: Colímbade, Linge, Céncride, Cisa, Claoris, Acalántide, Nesa, Pipo y Dracóntide. Orgullosas por creerse especialmente dotadas con un excepcional talento para la música, el canto y la poesía, retaron a las Musas para así disputarles la supremacía del canto.

Las Musas eran muy musas y por supuesto ganaron; las Piérides quedaron transformadas en urracas, manteniendo su espíritu parlanchín y alborotador.

Con el tiempo, bien sea por el hecho de haber nacido en el Monte Piero o por su victoria sobre las hijas de Píero, ambos nombres Musas y Piérides tenderían a identificarse.

Rapae, del latín rapa (nabo), aunque sus plantas nutricias son principalmente crucíferas.
