Our Butterflies of the Hautes Pyrenees tour takes us into a rich area for butterflies of all kinds, but it's a particular wonderland for Erebia ringlets. We have potential to see into double figures of species of these alone during the week.

13... considered unlucky for some.
But not for us!
We've seen 13 species of Erebia ringlet in just four days here in Austria, the full anticipated set of this varied and attractive genus in the beautiful montane area we're exploring.

Buenos días. Erebia neoridas se distribuye de forma irregular por Alpes y Pirineos y también cuenta con unas pocas citas en Picos de Europa y Sistema Central.

Any shortlist of my favourite butterflies of Spain's Montes Universales simply has to feature its wonderful endemic, late-summer Erebia ringlet, Zapater's Ringlet.
Like the butterfly equivalent of a Jaffa cake with those dark chocolate and orange wings, and just as much of a treat.

Picture postcards from our recently completed butterfly holiday in Slovenia. Upland Erebia’s were a main goal & we saw 14-15 species, including the endemic Lorkovic’s Brassy Ringlet (Erebia calcaria), Stygian Ringlet (Erebia styx), and Styrian Ringlet (Erebia stirius).

Imagine a tour that promised over a dozen Erebia ringlets, but missed most of them because the tour's timing was horribly awry. 😳 While other companies might wing it, hoping to get lucky, that's not the Mariposa way. Our recent Austrian tour enjoyed 15 species of Erebia alone.

Postcard from the field, from the Hautes Pyrenees:
We enjoyed a fabulous day today at high altitude in the French Pyrenees, with the first of our big target Erebia ringlets seen well, among over 60 further species - Lefebvre's Ringlet.

Described to us by a Swedish butterfly expert we also shared it with in the field as "the rarest butterfly in Sweden", we were delighted to find Arctic Ringlet (Erebia disa) today for our @mariposanature.bsky.social guests. Everyone understandably thrilled to see this ashy-winged beauty!

As Beyoncé might have sung had she only spent some time hanging out with Erebia, if you like it then you shoulda put a ringlet on it.
Erebia ringlets are a particular highlight of our tour in the Hautes Pyrenees, with some special species to be found there.

Postcard from the field from tour leader @dunnjons.bsky.social in the Hautes Pyrenees:
We've spent today exploring one of the highest cols in the Pyrenees, finding an abundance of Erebia ringlets, including Piedmont and the ringlet with a rainbow in its wings, Pyrenean Brassy.

Postcard from the field, from tour leader @dunnjons.bsky.social in Austria:
To say today was a brilliant day would be an understatement - we found two new Erebia ringlets, not only the sought-after Water Ringlet, but also a colony of Swiss Brassy Ringlet, way east of its normal range.
