Is there clarification of what butterfly "Meadow Fritillary" below refers to? There is a N American Boloria sp.(like our PB & Small PB Frits + less silver on underside) and there is also a European Melitea sp. very similar to a Heath Frit.
Using common names for non UK species can be ambiguous as they may go by many different names globally. [This record refers to the European species, administrators] |
