Pend-d Oreille Butterfly Survey

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

My thanks to Cris Guppy, Jon Shepard and Chris Schmidt for sharing their Pend-d’ Oreille specimen data. Thanks also to Steve Kohler, Don Lafontaine and Jon Shepard for examining Euphydryas specimens and sharing their views on the Euphydryas anicia/chalcedona situation. Gary Anweiler, Cris Guppy, Martin Honey and Harry Pavulaan provided literature assistance. Charles Bird, Rob Cannings, Stewart Clow, Cris Guppy, Peter Newroth and James Scott kindly reviewed drafts of this report. Thanks to the BC Forest Service for providing the study area satellite image. And of course, thanks to the Living Landscapes Program for funding support. Special thanks to Trudy Kondla for company on many of the field trips and providing proficient butterfly-spotting assistance. Oh yes, how could I almost forget to thank Stewart Clow for pointing to a blue at a roadside puddling area and asking the question "What’s that?". Had he not done so, the Northern Blue could have easily gone unreported.
