Participating in the annual Greene County butterfly count today, I recorded
nine personal FOY species for the county:
Harvester
Northern Pearly-eye
Hoary Edge
Southern Cloudywing
Crossline Skipper
Northern Broken-Dash
Little Glassywing
Delaware Skipper
Lace-winged Roadside-Skipper
Today was probably the hottest day of the year so far in Greene County, which
made for good butterflying. The party I was in tallied 42 species. Results from
other participants are not yet in, but I anticipate a pretty high species
total. Individual numbers in my party were, for the most part, way down--in
line with the general poor showing for butterflies in the county in this very
wet summer.
Previous species tallies on this count are as follows:
2004--50
2005--52
2006--50
2007--48
2008--46
