Iain Smith MSP recently accompanied a transect of Auchtermuchty Common by Butterfly Conservation volunteers. Thanks to the excellent weather, six species of butterfly and four of moth were recorded on the common, which is run by the Macduff Trust who are "entrusted" with the Common and its management for the benefit of the people of Auchtermuchty and for its conservation. The moths sighted were Carpet, Yellow Shell, Chimney Sweeper and Latticed Heath, while the butterfly species were Orange-Tip, Small Heath, Meadow Brown, Ringlet, Dark Green Fritillary and, most excitingly, a total of 15 Small Pearl-Bordered Fritillaries, indicating that the colony of this none-too-common species has become established.
