Can someone please confirm ( or otherwise) the ID of this specimen. The photo was taken at Scorsbysund, East Greenland on 26 July this year. There were quite a few flying.
I think it is Clossiana chariclea. Thanks

Steve

The way the chevrons are on the hindwing suggests it`s the Arctic Fritillary. Steve
