Butterflies

Species-rich meadows, borders and forests are home to over hundred species of butterflies and over thousand species of moths. Butterflies tend to be more vibrant in colour and patterns and are well known. Common brimstone, whites and ringlets are also frequent visitors to our gardens. Moths are much less known and studied, even though they are much more diverse and numerous.
Diversity of species of butterflies and their distribution were researched within the project Landscape in harmony on both sides of the border, both in Goričko Nature Park and National park Őrség. Atlas dnevnih metuljev / Nappali lepke atlasz / Butterfly atlas was published in Slovenian, Hungarian and English language, Öriszentpéter, 2012.
