(Boisduval, 1832)
Larche Ringlet
Description:
The Larche Ringlet inhabits steep screes and rocky slopes of limestone with sparse grassy vegetation.
Its sole food plant, Helictotrichon sedenense, a sort of oat-grass, has a very limited distribution, which seems to be the reason for this butterfly's restricted distribution.
Habitat:
Screes
Inland cliffs and exposed rocks
