Butterflies 69 – Duke of Burgundies
DUKE OF BURDUNDY Hamearis
lucina
·
At one time the photographer would have been able
to have photographed the rare Duke of Burgundy Hamearis
lucina in Surrey but sadly this vulnerable
and rather sedentary little butterfly has now become extinct in Vice-county 17
despite the efforts of Butterfly Conservation to preserve the relict
population. The example shown above was photographed in France (scanned from a
transparency).
