| Additional Notes | This butterfly is one of the most common butterflies of Europe but all butterflies have been virtually absent for much of this very wet and cool 2012 summer. Mercifully, a few late butterflies have recently been seen on limestone grassland as this example and and on heather moorland including Small Heath and Small Copper Butterflies. |
