This seems certain to be the Maculinea arion that was suggested to
me earlier when I said one had been sighted here. Since then, the
people who saw it have been shown photographs of it and all seem to
agree this is it. I believe it was released on Dartmoor which is
about 3 miles from us so it seems very possible it would find its
way here.
This was discussed on BBC radio 4 last week:

Many thanks for this info. I've written to the Project to let them
know we've sighted the butterfly.
You're most welcome. It's a beautiful animal. I wish I had seen it!
