Lycaena hippothoe (Linnaeus, 1761)

Some males of this species can be absolutely stunning, as in the photo. They are bright shiny orange red and varying extent of purple sheen that changes with the angle of viewing.

Wierzch skrzydeł samca ciemnoczerwony, często z fiołkowym odcieniem, tylne skrzydło przy tylnym brzegu przyciemnione. Wierch skrzydeł samicy ciemnobrunatny, przednie skrzydło w polu środkowym często z pomarańczowym rozjaśnieniem. Tylne skrzydło z pomarańczową przepaską brzegową. Spód skrzydeł żółtobrunatny, pomarańczowa przepaska w zewnętrznej części tylnego skrzydła słabiej wykształcona niż u zamgleńca.

Hello Alina,
What a beauty this is and your capture is brilliant showing it very sharply in lovely natural colours against the green background.
A nice composition too. I hope we'll see it here too soon but the weather here is very unstable at the moment.
TFS and best wishes, Ulla

Witaj,
Pięknie prezentuje się ten czerwończyk przypominając świerzy listek międzi. Na tle wiosennej zieleń równie ładny jak kosmyk rudych włosów obok zielonej źrenicy oka. Ładny kadr, piękne kolorki.
Pozdrawiam,
Jurek
