Picos Pyrgus

Post by Paul Wetton »

Here is the first of my Pyrgus problems. This individual was found mud puddling with Marbled Skippers at an altitude of around 1500 metres close to a river. It was the size of Large / Oberthur's / Foulquier's. I originally thought Oberthur's as it appeared to have two white arcs near the anal angle of the hindwing underside. Any comments / help welcome.

Many thanks
