Pyrgus Picenus
''Pyrgus'' is a genus in the skippers butterfly family, Hesperiidae, known as the grizzled skippers. The name "checkered" or "chequered skipper" may also be applied to some species, but also refers to species in the genera ''Burnsius'' and ''Carterocephalus''. They occur in the Holarctic with an additional group of species extending to the Neotropic. In 2019, most of the species of ''Pyrgus'' found in the North, Central, or South America were moved to the genera ''Burnsius'', '' Chirgus'', and ''Heliopetes''. The remaining ''Pyrgus'' species found in the New World are ''Pyrgus centaureae'', ''ruralis'', ''scriptura'', and ''xanthus''. Species These species belong to the genus ''Pyrgus'': * '' Pyrgus accretus'' (Verity, 1925) * '' Pyrgus aladaghensis'' de Prins & van der Poorten, 1995 (aladag skipper) * '' Pyrgus alpinus'' Erschoff, 1874 * ''Pyrgus alveus'' (Hübner, 1803) (large grizzled skipper) * ''Pyrgus andromedae'' (Wallengren, 1853) (alpine grizzled skipper) * ''Pyrgus ar ...

Pyrgus Malvae
''Pyrgus malvae'', the grizzled skipper, is a butterfly species from the family Skipper (butterfly), Hesperiidae. It is a small skipper (butterfly) with a chequered pattern on its wings that appears to be black and white. This butterfly can be found throughout Europe and is common in central and southern regions of England. The butterfly prefers three major types of habitat: woodland, grassland, and industrial. Referenced as a Species complex, superspecies, ''Pyrgus malvae'' includes three semispecies: ''malvae'', ''malvoides'', and ''melotis''. Eggs are laid on plants that will provide warmth and proper nutrition for development. As larvae, their movement is usually restricted to a single plant, on which they will build tents, unless they move onto a second host plant. Larvae then spin cocoons, usually on the last host plant they have occupied, where they remain until spring. Upon emerging as adult butterflies, grizzled skippers are quite active during the day and tend to favour ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Pyrgus Cirsii
The Cinquefoil Skipper (''Pyrgus cirsii'') is a species of skipper (butterfly), skipper butterfly (family Hesperiidae). Description This species has a wingspan of 26–28 mm and, typically of its genus, can be very difficult to identify in the field. ''Pyrgus cirsii'' is a medium-sized skipper. There is basically a possibility of confusion with other species of the genus ''Pyrgus'', in particular with ''Oberthür's grizzled skipper, Pyrgus armoricanus''. Characteristic of ''Pyrgus cirsii'' is a large square discoidal spot on the upper side of the forewing and almost always a second point-like mark over the basal spot on the upper side of the forewing. The hind wing underside is often ocher to reddish brown and stands out from other species of the genus. It is sometimes considered a subspecies of the carline skipper, Carline Skipper (''P. carlinae'') as the two are known to Hybrid (biology), interbreed where their ranges overlap in the Alps but can usually be recognised by ...
