Charlie Lyon and I surveyed butterflies at Eddie Jones Park in Caddo Parish
yesterday. Charlie arrived late, but still got a new life butterfly--a little
glassywing. There were many butterflies compared to what we have been seeing
there. We saw a total of 26 species. Nothing was really unusual-not even the
little glassywing. However I did see 17 southern pearly-eyes which was the
most I have ever seen in one survey. I am still looking for a creole
pearly-eye in this area which should be here and occupies the exact same
habitat as the southern pearly-eye. The complete list is below.
