[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Brenthis daphnae / 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, My Friend,

What a great capture of this Fritillary butterfly! You have sharp focus and clear, details of the pattern and texture of the wings.
Good dof to isolate it from the b/g and nice, off-centre composition.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Bonjour Luciano,
Très jolie présentation décentrée de ce papillon de la famille des Heliconiinae. Il ne s'agit probablement pas d'Issoria lathonia, mais d'un autre membre de cette belle famille, éventl Brenthis daphnae., les spécialistes te diront. La forme des ailes dIssoria est assez différente.
Amitiés
Anne

Hi Luciano,

This is a nice and delicate photo of the butterfly. Nice POV showing well the pattern of the wings. DOF is well chosen keeping the whole insect in focus and rendering clearly the details of wing's texture.

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian
