Spansk Lynglimt, Zegris eupheme ssp. meridionalis (Lederer, 1852) Udseende: kendes nemt på den hvide overside med sortomkranset orange forvingetip, har gulgrøn marmoreret bagvinge underside.

Vingefang: 46 - 50 mm.

Habitat & Adfærd: Lynglimt er en meget aktiv flyver. Flyver på ruderater, tørre, blomsterrige, klippefyldte områder og græsoverdrev imellem Appelsinplantager & Olivenlunde.

Flyvetid: fra marts til juni.

Værtsplante: I Spanien lever larven på flere korsblomstrende frøanlæg som Sydlig Ager-Sennep, Hirschfeldia incana syn. Sinapis incana. Radise & Kiddike, Raphanus species. Dodder, Camelina laxa og Farve-vajd, Isatis tinctoria. Overvintrer i puppestadie (Chrysalis). 

Udbredelse: Spansk Lynglimt findes i Spanien: Andalusien til prov. Salamanca, Burgos, Soria, Zaragosa, Huesca, Lérida, Alicante (500-1400 m.).

Marokkansk Lynglimt, Zegris meridionalis ssp. marocana (Bernadi, 1950) findes i Atlasbjergene, Marokko, Nordafrika (1200-2750 m.).

Resumé: Artens, og de dertil underarter, ud af slægten Zegris (Boisduval, 1836) er fænotypisk og genotypisk analyseret. På grund af den genetisk afstand på 3,5% fra Z. eupheme (Esper, 1804), er de isolerede populationer fra Den Iberiske Halvø og fra Morokko givet særstatus: Spansk Lynglimt, Zegris meridionalis ssp. meridionalis (Lederer 1852) november 2015, og Marokkansk Lynglimt, Zegris meridionalis ssp. marocana (Bernardi 1950) november 2015

Engelsk navn: Spanish Sooty Orange Tip.

Sooty Orange Tip, Zegris eupheme (Esper, 1804) and Spanish Sooty Orange Tip, Zegris meridionalis (Lederer, 1852) Identification: Very distinctive species, cannot be mistaken for anything else. The yellow undersides and the patch of orange in grey-black forewing tips are highly distinctive.

Wingspan: 46 - 50 mm.

Habitat: The habitat consists of open flowery grasslands amongst hills.

In Morocco, the species is particularly associated with Woad, Isatis tinctoria, and is found at mid and high elevations in the Middle and High Atlas Mountains.

Foodplants: The larvae feed on Mediterranean mustard, Hirschfeldia incana syn. Sinapis incana. Radish, Raphanus species. Roth, Sisymbrium polymorphum. Woad, Isatis tinctoria, and False Flax, Camelina laxa

Larvae are often found on the same individual host plant as caterpillars of Green-Striped White, Small White and Large White. Compared to these other pierines, Sooty Orange Tip is associated with very stable environments.

Distribution: is a Palearctic White Butterfly that has a range that extends through southern Europe, southwest Europe (Z. meridionalis ssp. meridionalis) and Atlas Mountains, Morocco, North Africa (elevation 1200-2750 m.). (Z. meridionalis ssp. marocana). And Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Iran, the Caucasus, Ukraine, Volga, the southern Urals, Kazakhstan and Altai (Z. eupheme). Minor Global warming currently seems to be extending its range to the north.

______________________________________

Abstract: The species, and all their subspecies, out of the genus Zegris (Boisduval, 1836) are phenotypically and genotypically analysed. Due to the genetically distance of 3,5 % from Sooty Orange Tip, Z. eupheme (Esper, 1804), the isolated populations from the Iberian Peninsula and from Moroc are given specific status: Spanish Sooty Orange Tip, Zegris meridionalis ssp. meridionalis (Lederer, 1852) stat. nov. and their subspecies Moroc Sooty Orange Tip, Zegris meridionalis ssp. marocana (Bernardi, 1950) comb. nov 2015.
