Lots of second-brood Brown Argus at my local site in Chaldon, Surrey including an aberrrant form with pale yellow spotting instead of orange.
Although it was not a fresh individual, I am confident that the difference in colouration is as a result of an aberration rather than wear.
Photo to be added to the Species Album shortly.
