Milbert's Tortoiseshell (Aglais milberti), also known as the Fire-rim Tortoiseshell, is the only species of Aglais that occurs in North America. This is a quick species that flits rapidly around woodland roads. When it lands it may open its wings, often on trees or rocks. Milbert's Tortoiseshell's range includes all of Canada and Alaska south of the tundra, all of the western United States and most of the eastern United States. In these areas they commonly occur in wet areas, including moist pastures, marshes, most trails, and roadsides. Order: Lepidoptera, Family: Nymphalidae. |
