The northern grizzled skipper (Pyrgus centaureae) is a species of skipper butterfly (family Hesperiidae). This is a species of the mountainous regions of Scandinavia, flying in June and July. While generally similar to most other Pyrgus species, this species has a greyer brown background colour with bold white spots on both the forewing and hindwing. Unlike most other Pyrgus species, the veins on the underside are obviously lined white. One generation is produced per year, the larval food plant being cloudberry (Rubus chamaemorus).
