This site is devoted to the butterflies (Lepidoptera, Rhopalocera) of Kharkov region, Ukraine. The results of my observations of local butterflies since 2000 are included. I have also used some literature sources in compiling the list. My photos of most of the recorded species are included. More details about how the list is compiled are here. I am updating the site regularly as soon as I am getting new information.

Any comments, especially concerning distribution and identification, are welcome. You may contact me via kharkov.but(at)gmail.com
