Wales is an essential refuge for many of Britains butterflies and moths.
Wildlife in Wales
The uplands, valleys and coasts have hugely important populations of rare butterflies and moths, including the Marsh, High Brown and Pearl-bordered Fritillaries.
Mynydd Mawr is one of the remaining strongholds for the Marsh Fritillary, while The Great Orme in North Wales is the best place in Britain to see the endangered Silver-studded Blue. There are also sites on the Gower in South Wales that are much visited for both their butterflies and moths.
Conservation of populations of the highly endangered High Brown and Pearl-bordered Fritillary are top priorities.
Wales has its share of special moths found nowhere else in Britain. These include the Silurian and Ashworth’s Rustic.
Butterfly Conservation has a team of four staff in Wales. There are two Branches, North Wales and South Wales, which are run entirely by volunteers, who contribute countless hours to recording and conserving the endangered butterflies and moths of Wales.
