Thank you for your input, traplican. I have to say that I have a very few knowledges about butterflies indentification. So, I'm able to identitify only a very few species. I've seen L. thersamon here in Romania and I suppose it isn't a very rare species here.
Here is a picture taken in August 2009, near Bucharest:

It is most probably Lesser Fiery Copper - Lycaena thersamon (male).

more rare and local than L. dispar. L. thersamon has extincted in Czech republic in 80th and after y 2000 rarely strays to SE Moravia.

My thanks to the person who previously commented on this photo. The image was moved to another part of the species album when it's full identity was confirmed. This unfortunately resulted in all previous comments and ratings being lost. I regret that I did not catch the name of the person who commented but am pleased that they took the time to make a post.

Vince.
