| Duke of Burgundy, Hamearis lucina |
Yesterday I visited Kithurst Meadow and met David Cook who put me onto a female Duke of Burgundy. Other species seen: many Brimstones, Dingy Skippers, Grizzled Skipper, Common Blues (2), Green Hairstreaks, Holly Blues, a Peacock, Orange-tips, Brown Argus. Just a couple of moths: the tiny Red-fringed Conch (Falseuncaria ruficiliana) and a Common Sweep case-bearing larva (Psyche casta).
