This butterfly landed briefly in front of me at Grenofen Woods near Tavistock in Devon on Mat 14th 2016. I think it is a small pearl bordered fritillary - could anyone confirm please?
Many thanks
Stuart

Re: Small pearl bordered fritillary?
Thank you! I originally thought it was a pearl bordered fritillary but on checking previous ID posts on the forum I found the ID feature regarding the chevron placements and realised it was a small pearl bordered.
