[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Brenthis dapne / Braamparelmoervlinder / Marbled Fritillary / Brombeer-Perlmutterfalter / Le Nacré de la ronce.

The marbled effect on the underside gives this species its name. The similar Lesser marbled fritillary Brenthis ino is distinguished by an additional yellow shaded cell on the underside hindwing.
This particular species is different to the other fritillaryspecies by the fact that a female lays eggs on Bramble, rubus species, where as a large number of fritillaries use viola or violet species.

Hibernation as caterpillar.

Flies from end may until half august.

Hello Harm,
your picture mediates a warm and pleasant atmosphere. The focus on the body and the left wings' upperside is just right and perfect. Sharpness is pretty good, light and colours are optimal for the conditions.
Best wishes, Peter
