This specimen is looking a bit frayed around the edges. The main food plant of its larvae is the stinging nettle. The numbers of the Small Tortoise have fallen by as much as 80% in the last 20 years in parts of the British Isles. This is thought to be due to a parasitic fly which has moved here from southern Europe. First recorded in 1999, the Sturmia Bella larvae parasitize the caterpillars when they eat the fly eggs also laid on nettles. Adult flies emerge from the chrysalis. text/html 2008-09-06T22:23:42GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/8378 John S Turner 53.350734 -4.259048 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/952839 This information board looks very new and is opposite the modern entrance to Din Lligwy/Din Llugwy. text/html 2008-09-06T22:21:59GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/27735 djmacpherson 57.552152 -4.520919 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/952838 text/html 2008-09-06T22:21:30GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/1837 Philip Halling 51.988068 -2.208922 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/952837 Dead pollarded tree near Forthampton, the parish church can be seen in the background. text/html 2008-09-06T22:19:43GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/1712 Humphrey Bolton 53.848968 -1.870761 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/952836 A giant shell in a glade, behind a locked gate.
