Butterflies
We are lucky with the variety of butterflies we get in the Ardeche. These pages try to identify many of them. Click on the images below to get to more images of that group of speices. If two images are joined, then they are of the same individual.
If you spot any obvious errors then do please tell me - I am very much a novice at this.
All images are in our garden in Sablieres at a height of 440m above sea level unless otherwise stated. The links for each species all refer to Roger Gibbons' excellent website :https://www.butterfliesoffrance.com/index.htm which has many useful pointers for identification which I hope I have not misinterpreted.
