MORE BUTTERFLIES - Silver-Bordered Fritillary Butterfly on Astilbe blooms in the garden. The common name for the Fritillary comes from a Latin word, fritillus, which means chessboard or dice box. Fritillary is also the name of a flower with an interesting checkered pattern - and it is obvious that both the butterfly and the flower get their common name because of such pattern.
