“…Thus, nationally widespread species have declined just as much within the North Wales region as more restricted species, even though previous analyses based on the national 10 km grid have indicated that localized species have su¡ered higher percentage declines (Heath et al 1984;Thomas 1994;Thomas & Abery 1995). Coarse-grained maps grossly underestimate population-level rates of decline, particularly for common species that initially have many populations per grid square (Thomas & Abery 1995;Warren et al 1997). Decline rates per unit area may be comparable for widespread and localized species, but localized species initially occupy much smaller total areas (table 1 and ¢gure 1).…”

“…Thirteen out of 23 conservation priority (Warren et al 1997) butter£y species in Britain have been subject to partial (regional) or complete (national) population-level mapping (table 1). For these species, every known population within the sample area has been visited, the approximate colony boundaries mapped and the extent of their £ight areas calculated.…”

“…bellargus is bivoltine in the UK and its sole larval host plant is Hippocrepis comosa, with the offspring of the second adult generation overwintering as larvae. Between 1950 and the 1980s, 70 % of P. bellargus colonies in the UK had gone extinct and its range had retracted by 42 % (Thomas 1983;Warren et al 1997). Since receiving Priority Species status in the UK Biodiversity Action Plan in the 1990s, the number of UK colonies of P.…”
