Butterfly Conservation's strength derives from its Branches and the 40,000 members they embrace. They enable Butterfly Conservation to monitor butterfly and moth activity in every corner of the British Isles and even parts of Europe. The resulting data set has no rival and informs our conservation decisions. Branch members are some of Britain’s most enthusiastic volunteer conservationists.SPINDLE ERMINE
A common resident but rarer further north and into Scotland. The forewing is uniformly white with black dots. Very similar in appearance to closely related Ermines and care must be taken with identification. Flight Season Flies at night from late June to early September in a single generation. Size and Family Family – Yponomeutinae Small Sized Wingspan Range – 19-26mm ConservationStatus

WOOD WHITE - BUTTERFLY CONSERVATION Rare in south England and the Burren region of western Ireland, this small butterfly with a slow flight is usually encountered in sheltered situations, such as woodland glades or scrub. The upper wings are white with rounded edges. Males have a black mark on the edge of the forewing. The undersides are white, with indistinct grey markings. Males fly almost continuously throughout the day inCUMBRIA BRANCH
The county of Cumbria is located where the boundaries of southern and northern species of butterfly overlap which goes some way to explaining why 41 species are recorded, rather high for a county this far north. We have the Mountain Ringlet and Scotch Argus that cannot be seen anywhere else south of the Scottish border. CINNABAR - BUTTERFLY CONSERVATION This species is so named due to the colour of the hindwings and the markings on the forewings which make it unmistakeable. There is little variation although on rare occasions the pinkish markings are replaced with yellow, or the forewing is red with a black border or the wings are completely black. Easily disturbed by day and flies in sunshine. Also flies after dark. Size and Family Family GLOUCESTERSHIRE BRANCH For each work party there will always be a work party leader and a first aider.
