Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary | |
| Similar in appearance to the Pearl-bordered Fritillary, it is more widespread occupying a more diverse range of habitats including woodland glades, grassland, heath, moorland and coastal cliffs. It breeds in damp condition where there is an abundance of its chief food-plants: the Common Dog-violet (Viola riviniana) and Marsh Violet (V. palustris). Adults fly low-down, taking nectar from flowers such as bramble and thistles. |
