The under surface rear wing is dark with a bluish purple glow and dark red, yellow and pearl-coloured markings. Found on flower-rich meadows, hills, sandy and heath areas. ⇔ wsp. 29-30 mm syn. Violet fritillary LA: ≈ The upper surface is very similar for several of this genus like the BOLORIA SELENE (Small Pearl-bordered Fritillary) and BOLORIA EUPHROSYNE (Pearl-bordered fritillary) with only marginal differences. ≈ The BOLORIA AQUILONARIS (Cranberry Fritillary) has a similar under surface but is more red-brown instead of blue-purple.
