I, too, had doubts about their copies this year, but settled on this option purely visual features compared to the other, because of the bars on the wings, the size and shape of butterfly wings.
That message here on the website, on the page of the form Aricia artaxerxes: "flight of time. In the Moscow region: the end of May - end of September. Message. Pudovikov Fedor." Borovsky district borders with the Moscow region ... From late May to 22 June poistrepatsya could be healthy! :)
Eugene Caroline last year wrote that they differ in the shape of wings.) I artaxerxes some other form, judging by the photos on the page artaxerxes here on the site.
I agree that it is more Melitaea phoebe. Do yourself look under high magnification, and "launched" a little underside of the second butterfly ... on the orange spots sling dark orange, not black!) It turns out that phoebe.

Weeeeel... Seems this does have "eye" on its forewing! I'll add now an only pic with that. Sergey Kotov is right again!)
Most of all - it is! Quite often L. populi in 2012. I met on the dry (artificial) between the primer dd. Chernev and Tomasheva Orel settlement going on Indigenous south bank of the river. Road tight enough frames aspen. Poplar lentochniki examined for some reason the road sections with protruding gravel!)
In any case, thank you!) I have butterflies rented only three years. Dia in the "underside" I did not come across as well as in private collections gained a new copy!)
Not so straightforward ... The region from west to east stretches over 650 kilometers ... We were influenced by the Urals, and Babaevo - Baltic! Not Hilo, yes! Interestingly, the list Sineva - Maturna, Adippa, Niobe, Admiral absent from us, but in fact they are! Pafiya should be on the list, but we have not yet come across!
