The marsh fritillary occurs in different types of habitat, such as moist, sheltered grasslands, along the edges of raised bogs, and on dry, calcareous grasslands. The foodplants are devil’s bit scabious (Succisa pratense), small scabious (Scabiosa columbaria), field scabious (Knautia arvensis) and teasels (Dipsacus). In Spain, E.a. beckeri is larger and brighter than most subspecies. (IUCN, 2013)
