Synopsis

Excerpt from The Entomologist's Record and Journal of Variation, 1978, Vol. 90

I was told the butterflies had at first appeared in numbers when, apparently seeking moisture, they settled on a rough track which wound its way through their emerging ground in the oak woodland. This area was literally carpeted in places with violet plants and must have provided an ample food supply ready at hand for the host of larvae. After a few days they were able to transfer their attention to the bramble blossom, now just coming out, and on which they settled in their hundreds.

Most Of the aberrational forms were not noticed till the bramble stage was reached and it would seem that they largely appeared towards the end Of the emergence, although some were taken on the path when the butterflies first appeared. It was noticeable too that female aberrations predominated, at any rate in the majors I have no record of any aber rations being taken after 11th July, by which date the emergence was virtually over and most Of the butterflies were looking distinctly worn.
