Many species of butterfly have declined at alarming rates over recent decades and are good indicators of environmental change and the quality of our countryside and urban landscape. They are easy to record and identify and can be used as a barometer of many thousands of other, less well known insects.
Help us monitor the distribution of each butterfly species by recording a sighting from around the UK. Simply select the location on the map, choose the butterfly from the list below, click 'Add sighting to map' and then click on the map where you have seen it. You can delete the marker while you remain on the page.
Note: For speed, the map only displays a maximum of 100 markers at any one time. Zoom into an area to see all the details.
