Lapland Ringlet
Erebia embla
The Lapland ringlet (Erebia embla) is a member of the Satyrinae subfamily of the Nymphalidae family. It is restricted to sunny patches in very damp spruce and pine forests and forested unmanaged peatlands (and sometimes moors). The larva feeds on various grasses and related plants (such as Carex) and winters twice. A dry period in the habitat will result in the decline of the species.
