I'm off to the Isle of Wight in 2 weeks. What species of butterfly should I look out for particularly?

I'm trying to extend my collection of photos away from Common Blues and Small/Large Skippers :D

Thanks in advance for your recommendations and help

Hopefully Adonis Blue on Bonchurch Down ,Ventnor.Park at Smugglers Haven Car Park and cross road to get onto Down.
Today on the Down,Chalkhill Blue,Small Copper,Marbled White,MBrowns,Gatekeepers,Common Blue,Wall Brown,and of course Adonis Blue.
Maybe still Grayling on Bleak Down near to Godshill.
