Chazara prieuri, the southern hermit, is a butterfly species belonging to the family Nymphalidae.

The adult flies in July and August, depending on the location.

The larva feeds on the grass Lygeum spartum.

This butterfly resembles the preceding species above [ heydenreichi ], but the transverse patch of white streaks which extends across the forewing above the apical ocellus does not reach the costa; the oval blotch in the cell of the forewing is so strongly shaded with brown that it contrasts but slightly with the ground-colour, and the white discal band is somewhat more distinct than in heydenreichi, though it has no smear-like projection towards the base.

The underside of the hindwing, particularly in the female, is more extensively, though less distinctly, spotted with greyish brown, so that it approaches to a certain extent that of semele, the angulated spots not appearing so conspicuous as in briseis and heydenreichi.
