[This is an update to the article written in February 2014]. The presence of the Mountain Ringlet (Erebia epiphron) in Ireland has been a topic of much interest to Lepidopterists for decades, partly because of the small number of specimens that are reputedly Irish. The Irish Mountain Ringlet is truly the stuff of legend and many articles have been written over the years, including the excellent summary by Chalmers-Hunt (1982). The purpose of this article is to examine all relevant literature and, in particular, the various points of view that have been expressed over the years. This article also includes images of all four surviving specimens that can lay claim to Irish provenance and some of the sites mentioned in conjunction with these specimens are shown in Figure 1. Figure 1 - Key Sites The Birchall Mountain Ringlet (1854) The first reported occurrence of Mountain Ringlet in Ireland was provided by Edwin Birchall (Birchall, 1865) where,

Crannagh Ramblers The Crannagh Ramblers, 20 Years a-Growing....Fiche Bliain ag Fas The Crannagh Ramblers's inaugural walk took place on Sunday 15th June 1997. The late John Doherty, the club's founder, led the walk of 12 members on Mamore Hill, Urris. 3 of those 12 founding members are still regular walkers with the Ramblers! Since then the club has grown to 38 members. Based in Inishowen the group got its name from the Crana river on which the town of Buncrana is built. The Crannagh Ramblers is a Cross-Border club with many of its members from Derry. The club is an active hillwalking group which meets regularly. Memorable club holidays include trips to Austria and Slovenia. Our annual holidays have brought us to the Mourne Mountains, Slieve League and the Wicklow Hills. On our 20th anniversary we reminisce on the very many happy occasions we have enjoyed and the new friendships we have made. We remember in particular our founder and leader, the late John Doherty. The club has erected a plaque in his memory on Mamore hill, the hill he chose to launch the club. We are delighted that our club has grown over the years and is still very much a lively, vibrant club.
