Lesser Marbled Fritillary
Brenthis ino
RETURN TO INDEX

Norway. The bold, dark margin is typical of this species.

Note that the spot at the base of space 4 on the hindwing is completely yellow - distinguishing this species from the marbled fritillary, in which the spot is half reddish.

All the last four pictures are of the same individual, in the Val d'Aran. It was very big, very cream coloured on the underside, and quite different in jizz from the usual.
