Posted @withregram • @butterfly.conservation.sa Thank you to Hayley @hayleyshomestead for sharing this beautiful video of a Chequered Copper Butterfly (Lucia limbaria).

These butterflies are rare in Adelaide. The butterflies are currently in small populations in Elizabeth, Victoria Park (Pakapakanthi) and Morphett Vale (where this footage was shot).

Thank you to Hayley for spotting and recording this butterfly and uploading her sighting to @inaturalistorg. Recording sightings of these butterflies is very important to create a map of where they can be found and monitor how the populations are going.

Chequered Coppers rely on Native Sorrel (Oxalis perannans) and have a symbiotic relationship with ants. Visit our YouTube page through our link in the bio to find out more.

Thanks to Rohan Clarke and @australiangolfdigest for the opportunity to talk about my job and what I love about it.
