General comments:
Widespread resident.

Some dark examples of Chestnut may be misidentified as this species, especially if the wing-tips have become worn during hibernation, though nine out of ten can probably still be named on sight by an experienced lepidopterist; the remainder may need dissection for confirmation. Only reliable records are included in the map and the flight chart.
