I went hoping to find Shepherd's, Mountain and Titania's Fritillaries, in which endeavour, I was singularly unsuccessful, except for a fleeting glimpse of a female Mountain F at 3,000 metres. I guess I was about 10 days early.
I was very pleased to find these two in the Costalunga Pass:
The first, I hope is Asian Fritillary and the second the nominative form of Thor's Fritillary (Clossiana thore thore). I saw several Asians, but only one thore , which I chased around a small area for two days...
I think this one is Nickerl's, but am happy to be corrected:
and this large 'blue'. Amanda's??
There were many other 'expecteds', including Geranium Argus, Alpine Heath, Camberwell Beauty, Baton Blue, Marsh Frit etc.
A lovely bit of the planet to which I hope to return next year - a bit later on
