Ringlet Butterfly

Aphantopus hyperantus

The rings on the Ringlet vary in number, size and clarity. The one top left is clearly and brightly marked; the one bottom right is almost plain brown and similar to a male Meadow Brown

        (With many thanks to Bob Clark who photographed the dark ringlet above)

The rings on the underside also vary in number, size and clarity (thanks again to Bob Clark for the one on the far right).
