Coenonympha vaucheri, or Vaucher's heath, is a butterfly that belongs to the family Nymphalidae and is endemic to Morocco.[1]
The top side of the butterfly is ochre-yellow with a deep black distal edge with the forewing bearing a huge apical ocellus without a pupil. This gives the butterfly the appearance of having large eyes to ward off predators. It's hindwing has between 4 or 5 black spots lined up in a straight row. Underneath the wings the apical ocellus is pupiled, these may increase in number (ab. geminipuncta Blach). The baseof the hindwing is a blackish olive-colour with a white highlight, the end portion of the wing is a dirty white colour and has six equally large pupiled ocelli.
