Red Book of Butterflies in Turkey Taxonomic notes The nominate subspecies, E. o. ottomana, is endemic to west and east Anatolia (Hesselbarth et al. 1995). Habitat and Ecology In Turkey, this butterfly is recorded from grassy slopes in the mountains (Baytaş 2007) between 1,100 and 2,500 m (Hesselbarth et al. 1995). It flies from late July to late August and feeds on grasses including Festuca sp (Hesselbarth et al. 1995). It has one generation per year (Settele et al. 2008f). Population Trend Increasing Decreasing Stable Unknown Population Ottoman Ringlet occurs in small, local and isolated colonies (Hesselbarth et al. 1995), from Mt Uludağ in the west to the eastern Black Sea mountains in the east. Thus the Turkish subpopulations are considered severely fragmented and isolated from European subpopulations. However, it is possible the butterfly is overlooked and may also be present at other localities within its range. 90 Erebia ottomana Threats This species is not believed to face major threats at the European level (van Swaay et al. 2009h). Some subpopulations fall within national park boundaries (e.g. Uludağ National Park, Bursa and Ilgaz Mountains National Park, Kastamonu), where expansion of tourist facilities, particularly for winter sports, is reported (Eken et al. 2006). However, there is no information whether these pose a threat to the butterfly. Recommended conservation action Research is needed to obtain a more complete understanding of the distribution and to identify and understand the threats.

Red Book of Butterflies in Turkey NT Near Threatened B2a Turkey: Extent Of Occurrence (EOO) post 1980 (km2 ) 54,376 Area Of Occupancy (AOO) post 1980 (km2 ) 400 In Turkey, it has been recorded from 11 localities in nine provinces since 1980, from Erzincan to Artvin and Bitlis to Hakkari. Its extent of occurrence is 54,376 km2 and area of occupancy (with a spatial adjustment to 40 km2 in each 10x10 km square) is approximately 400 km2 . RED LIST ASSESSMENT JUSTIFICATION Caspian Satyr (Satyrus parthicus) is a localised species with an area of occupancy in Turkey of approximately 400 km 2 . It has a scattered and severely fragmented distribution in E Turkey, occurring as small isolated subpopulations. There are no specific threats associated with this butterfly but, due to its small AOO and severely fragmented distribution, it is listed as Near Threatened. Due to the severely fragmented distribution no regional adjustment has been made to the threat category. Karaçetin, E. and Welch, H.J. (2011). Red Book of Butterflies in Turkey.
