Heath Fritillary Melicta athalia
Pupae very seldom offered and these are available NOW. These will hatch in June/July.
Common in parts of Europe, and a rare and very localised species in Britain. The larvae thrive on narrow-leaved Plantain Plantago and bear a remarkable resemblance to its flowerheads. July/August larvae will normally hibernate, but if kept in warm conditions, some may grow and produce butterflies again this year.
