Which Grizzlie Take 2...

Post by Wurzel »

This is probably also a Southern Grizzled Skipper - but I don't have much luck with identifying members of this group so just checking again. Also from the mountainous central Portugal. Thanks in advance :D

Hi Wurzel. That one’s a red-underwing skipper, Spialia sertorius.

Cheers Guy - I did wonder about that because of the line of tiny spots that ran along the edges of the wings but I'd seen a definite/blooming obvious Red-underwing earlier in the day so the colour of the under wing fazed me :D
