That is excellent, although just glancing at it Callophrys rubi is missing a fair few foodplants, although having said that by using the term 'host plants' I assume that these are plant species upon which the butterfly has been recorded ovipositing; rather than plants that the larva will eat..?
Clearly a lot of research here though. Well done Mr Hardy.
