Aphantopus hyperanthus - Flower eye (black-brown). Family. Marigolds (Satyridae).
A butterfly with striped eyes was photographed in the Moscow region on 3.07.2004. In the picture, its wings are folded, but the coloring of their " outer "side did not differ much from the "inner" side (as far as I remember )

This is Aphantopus hyperanthus - satyridae.

Indeed, Hyperant is a flower peephole. A cute butterfly, but the neighborhood of my native Mogilev was so full of it (alternately with Maniola jurtina) that I was just desperate to find at least something else.
