The lesser spotted fritillary (Melitaea trivia) is a butterfly of the Nymphalidae family. It is found in the southern part of the Palearctic ecozone. In Europe it is sometimes called "desert fritillary", but this name more accurately refers to the North African relative M. deserticola.

The wingspan is 15–23 mm.

The larvae feed on Verbascum species.
