The Balkan fritillary (Boloria graeca) is a butterfly in the family Nymphalidae, found in the Southern Alps and the mid- to high-altitude Balkans in Europe. It inhabits grassy, flower-rich areas, often near the tree line. The upper sides of its wings are orange, with brown markings, rounded spots and lines. The undersides of the hindwings feature silver patterns, with additional greenish marbling in females. This Balkan fritillary of the subspecies B.g.balcanica was photographed in Rila, a mountain range in Bulgaria.Photograph credit: Charles J. Sharp
