Marsh Fritillary

Thanks for the ID!

According to your link, Ashish, the Nymphalidae butterfly you suggested only lives in North America. There seems to be a lot of color variation between the checkerspot species, but the markings of Euphydryas aurinia seem to match this spotting, and the distribution fits.

Small note - the scientific name on the photo linked in the suggestion is wrong; it fomes from the main page of species photos here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Catego...
