Arachnia levana
This delightful little butterfly is best-known for having two forms, levana and prorsa that represent the spring and summer broods respectively. levana individuals are primarily orange in colour, giving them the appearance of a small fritillary, whereas prorsa individuals look more like a very small White Admiral.
It is common throughout the lowlands of central and eastern Europe, and is expanding its range in Western Europe.
