Small Skipper

Small Skipper

Latin name: Thymelicus sylvestris

The Small Skipper really is tiny and it’s typical “Skipper” wing formation leads some to believe it is a moth.

Orange/brown in colour the female lacks the black “scent streak” on the upper wings. Found in many grassland and woodland glades, the Small Skipper feeds on grasses.
