near to Dunsford, Devon, Great Britain

A rare valesina
A rare valesina
The female Silver-washed Fritillary is usually a dull golden colour, but in a small percentage of females at certain sites the usual ground colour is replaced by a beautiful shade of olive-grey. This form is known as valesina.
I found this in a clearing in Dunsford Woods.
