Denise Fish Arnside & Silverdale AONB The Old Station Building, Arnside, Carnforth LA5 0HG T: E: Butterfly Conservation T: E: David Talbot Butterflies Arnside & Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Special thanks to Laura Sivell for providing many of the stunning butterfly photographs used in this publication.
2 Large Skipper Arnside & Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Stunning limestone pavements, ancient woodlands, herb rich grasslands, meadows and wetlands are havens for butterflies, moths and other wildlife. Mike Warren Look out for butterflies The Morecambe Bay limestone hills are the most important butterfly sites in northern England and are a national stronghold for the High Brown Fritillary. Arnside Knott, Warton Crag and Gait Barrows National Nature Reserve are great places to see this butterfly. Front cover: Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary Elliott Staley High Brown Fritillary
3 Jon Sparks Gait Barrows National Nature Reserve, a great place to see Morecambe Bay s special butterflies. David Talbot The sulphur-yellow uppersides of the wings of the male Brimstone make this species easy to identify in flight. When the butterflies roost amongst foliage, the angular shape and the strong veining of the wings give them a close resemblance to leaves. 4
4 Painted Lady Butterfly Conservation was formed by a small group of dedicated naturalists in 1968 following the alarming decline of many beautiful butterflies. Most British butterflies remain a cause for concern, with three quarters of our native species in decline. Four butterflies and over sixty moths became extinct last century. We aim to halt and reverse these declines. Our vision is of a world rich in butterflies for future generations to enjoy. Butterflies are beautiful and intrinsically valuable. Together with moths, their sensitivity to environmental change makes them valuable indicators of the health of the countryside. Falling numbers are an early warning to all wildlife that cannot be ignored. Butterfly Conservation manages over thirty nature reserves, including Myers Allotment near Silverdale and is also involved in over seventy landscape-scale projects to conserve butterfly and moth habitats, including the Morecambe Bay limestone hills. Mike Moon Purple Hairstreak caterpillar Comma caterpillar Red Admiral caterpillar The Red Admiral is often seen in gardens feeding on Buddleia (also known as the Butterfly Bush) and on rotting fruit.

The AONB Partnership and Butterfly Conservation are working hard locally on habitat manangement to enhance and extend the special areas on which our butterflies depend.
