Species Champions

The Upper Thames Branch has developed a Species Champion programme which aims to increase our knowledge and conservation efforts for the most threatened species of butterfly in the UTB area. Each Species Champion specialises in a key species and aims to study its behaviour, abundance, range and habitat requirements.

The following species currently does not have a champion: Green Hairstreak. If you would like to take on this vacancy, please contact the Species Champion Co-ordinator for more information.
