Thanks for you help with the upper wing spot on HBF vs DGF.
Does anyone know how to differentiate between male and female HBF (either from above or below) please??
I have heard of the term sex brand but an not sure what that is. Actually, I will now try googling that term but might get some 'interesting' results!

Pete,
It does help but I cannot see the pictures of the females 1, 2 + 3.
Sorry to be a pain but I cannot make out the sex brands on the upper wings of the fritillaries. I know where they are on skippers and on the Wall so I guess across the forewing?
Would it be possible to give me the links for the female shots in the other thread for comparison.
I did google and got lots of unrelated hits!!
Much appreciated,
Richard

Hi Richard,
Not quite sure what's going on there. Can you see the image at this link?
