Lulworth Skipper
The Lulworth Skipper (Thymelicus
acteon) is a butterfly of the Hesperiidae family. Its name is derived
from Lulworth Cove in the county of Dorset, England, where the first
specimens in Great Britain were collected in 1832 by English naturalist
James Charles Dale. The species occurs locally across Central Europe,
Asia Minor and North Africa, where its population is considered stable.
Its numbers have declined in Northern Europe, leading to its European
status of "vulnerable".
