PIEDMONT RINGLET Erebia meolans (f)

 

·         The genus Erebia contains may similar looking brown butterflies in Europe, some with rather localised distribution or specialised habitats and identifying them can be tricky. However, this photograph (taken at altitude in the French Hautes-Pyrénées) illustrates a presumed Piedmont Ringlet E. meolans as the markings on the wings match very well with reference illustrations.
