Among them are the Small Copper and Sooty Copper, both belonging to the Lycaena tityrus family. These dainty creatures can be spotted fluttering gracefully in different locations across the globe. In Brockley Cemetery, Lewisham, one may encounter the mesmerizing sight of a Small copper butterfly (Lycaena phlaeas) perched delicately on a vibrant common ragwort. The juxtaposition of nature's colors creates an awe-inspiring scene within this tranquil resting place. Venturing into the picturesque meadows of Peak District National Park in Derbyshire, UK reveals yet another breathtaking display: a Small copper butterfly (Lycaena phlaeas) gliding effortlessly amidst wildflowers. Its wings adorned with intricate patterns seem to harmonize perfectly with its surroundings. Traveling further south to Bath unveils an exquisite moment where a Small copper butterfly (Lycaena phlaeas) stands elegantly upon an Aster flower in a meadow. This delicate interaction between insect and flora showcases nature's interconnectedness and reminds us of its inherent beauty. On distant shores lies Joutsa (formerly Leivonmaki), where the elusive Scarce Copper (Lycaena virgaureae) male graces meadows adorned with ox-eye daisies. This rare sighting is truly something special - witnessing such unique specimens against Finland's natural backdrop is like stumbling upon hidden treasure. Italy's Liguria region offers yet another glimpse into Lycaena's world as it presents Casareggio as home to Lycaena phlaeas butterflies. Here they dance through sunlit fields, adding splashes of color amongst Italy's stunning landscapes. Beyond Lycaenas' realm lie other captivating species like Hypochrysops ignitus or Fiery jewel butterfly along with Cambridge blue and odd-spot blue butterflies.
