Popis: | Of all the butterflies that occur in Britain, perhaps none has declined as dramatically in recent years as Argynnis adippe (high brown fritillary). The species was once widespread throughout England and Wales, and many early books referred to it simply as being present in most large woods (e.g. Frohawk, 1934). As late as the 1950s it was reported to be abundant in many of its localities but it then underwent a rapid and severe decline (Heath, Pollard and Thomas, 1984). |
