The European Butterflies Group newsletter is produced twice a year and emailed to members. The newsletters contain a wealth of information of where to see butterflies in Europe.

The group works closely with Butterfly Conservation Europe to plan surveys of threatened species. Over the last decade approximately 50 such surveys have been undertaken in nearly 20 countries targeting some of Europe's most threatened species such as Danube Clouded Yellow Colias myrmidone, Dils' Grayling Pseudochazara orestes and Spanish Greenish Black-tip Euchloe bazae.  Details of forthcoming trips and trip reports can be found in the newsletters.

We continue to be delighted at the growing number of wildlife tour companies who offer specialised butterfly watching holidays in Europe and increasingly further afield as well. As the European Butterflies Group, we are obviously keen to encourage this.

Such holidays are not only great fun, but encourage the interest in butterflies, provide valuable identification skills and often produce some very interesting records.

Many of the companies offering butterfly holidays in Europe are included on the holidays page of our website.
