Erebia kefersteini | |
Erebia kefersteini is a butterfly found in the East Palearctic (Altai, Sayan, Tuva, North Mongolia.) that belongs to the browns family.
kefersteini. Er. (36 b) is nearest to melampus and of the same size. The central area inclusive of the cell is brown-red, the base and the costal, distal and hindmargins being black-brown. In the male the reddish yellow distal band, which is divided into 6 spots by the veins, contrasts in colour but slightly with the central area and proximally gradually disappears in the latter. There are small black pupils in spots 2, 3 and 4 counted from the costal side. The underside is lighter, more greyish brown, the markings being as above. Among the few specimens examined there is one which essentially differs in markings: The forewing is black-brown, being centrally but little dusted with brown; the black dots are completely absent from the band of both wings. In the female the forewing is dark brown, the cell being more or less filled in with red-brown. There are 4 — 5 black ocelli in the spots of the transverse band, and the hindwing bears 4 red-brown ovate spots with black dots. [2]
