Ochlodes sylvanus on ribwort plantain. So far one of the very few butterfly species are relying on this plant in my area, despite this plant popping up everywhere and most German field guides highlighting its importance, those being T. sylvestris, T. lineola, C. pamphilus and C. arcania. O. sylvanus, on the other hand, seldom feeds on it. M. athalia, a rather new species within my study area, currently avoids it, as no eggs or caterpillars have been discovered, so far.

Once upon a time, a Large.Skipper visited me in my garden. #largeskipper #moth
