🇬🇧 The Silver-washed Fritillary is a startling, large butterfly that gets its name from the silver streaks on the underside of its wings. It can be seen during the summer months, frequenting blackberry and hawthorn bushes in woodland glades.

🇬🇷 Το Silver-washed Fritillary είναι μια εκπληκτική, μεγάλη πεταλούδα που πήρε το όνομά της από τις ασημένιες ραβδώσεις στην κάτω πλευρά των φτερών της. Μπορεί να το δει κανείς τους καλοκαιρινούς μήνες, να συχνάζει σε θάμνους βατόμουρου και κράταιγου σε ξέφωτα δασών.
