Glanvilles in Somerset

Post by Jack Harrison »

I'm curious.

Is the introduced colony of Glanville Fritillary in Someset (near Weston super Mare) still surviving? Is it at Brean Down or Sand Point or both? I had thought it was at Brean Down but John Booth's photo gallery has a picture labelled Sand Point and that has got me a little puzzled.

There have been several sightings at Sand Point this year (see "Glanville Fritillary in Somerset" under "Sightings") but I'm not aware of any at Brean.
