Pearl-Bordered Fritillary UK

Butterfly Conservation in the UK is currently in it's second year
of survey work to establish the current status of the Pearl-Bordered
Fritillary (Boloria euphrosyne).

This butterfly is expected to emerge within the next three weeks, but
exactly when depends on the weather.  I am involved with the survey
work for West Country Branch (Somerset and Bristol) where the butterfly
is now very rare.

To help maximise our survey time it would be useful for the other
UK members of the list to keep us informed of any emergences as they
are seen.  If the butterfly still exists in some of the previously known
sites in our area they are very thin on the ground and will require
several visits to establish their status (one way or the other).

It would be more informative for all if replies are sent to the list
instead of directly to me.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Andrew
