Description
orange and brown chequered butterfly with pattern of cream and orange bands and black marks on the underside of wings. the glanville fritillary is virtually restricted to coastal landslips on the southern half of the isle of wight and the channel islands along with a few coastal locations on the mainland. the status of the butterfly appears to have changed little in recent decades, though there has been some loss of habitat due to coastal protection measures. however, there are only a handful of core breeding areas and it remains a vulnerable species.
