CALIFORNIA 

2004 was a dry year for the state with poor flights for many species , especially in the southern half of the state. Research of records for 

the Yosemite region revealed some interesting unpublished records for that region and several previously overlooked past COUNTY 

records. There were sixteen newly recognized COUNTY records (and one long overlooked record that has had more recent records 

published in previous summaries). There was one STATE record that was referred to in SYSTEMATICS of WESTERN NORTH 

AMERICAN BUTTERFLIES, Editor, Thomas C. Emmel (1998) but specifics were not given. Records for National Parks or Monuments 

were under permits from the NPS. Several lepidopterists reported the rare migrant Phoebis philea in San Diego County during the 2004 

season, but these reports need confirmation .

There were 38 contributors, 9 of them new to report or to have their records reported in recent years from Zone 4, compared with 41 total 

and 11 new in 2003. Fer ris, Kohler, Sco tt and Stanford reported for the 26th or higher consecutive year from our Zone. Unusual weather 

patterns, including continued drought in the Great Basin and most of Co lorado, but cool and wet cond itions in both the northern and 

southern portions of the Rocky Mountain reg ion , resulted in rather poor overall results in 2004. I received only 275 data points , 179 for 

butterflies and 96 for moths, the lowest totals in several years. Forest fires were not as serious a problem in the region as in the prev ious 

several seasons. There were 156 new county records for butterflies, and 85 for moths. These included new county records for 68 butterfly 

species and 34 moth species, and there were several STATE records and one PROVINCIAL record. There were very few early or late 

dates in 2004. The ave rage number of butterfly and skipper species per Zone 4 coun ty is now 112, with projection of 123 ; the Zone is 

about 91% known. Th is compares with 96% in Zone 3 [AZ ,CA,NV] and 88 % in Zone 2 [10, OR, WA]. We are a long way to produce 

equivalent statistics for our moths. Let it be recorded, however, that the butterflies of all Western States and Provinces have been studied 

well, and are known at about the 90 % level. On the 200th anniversary of the Lewis & Clark expeditions, these exp lorers would surely be 

proud of our efforts, achievements, and publications.

Twenty-one contributors submitted only 14 records for 12 butterfly species, including 3 county records and 5 early or late dates. For moths 

there are 35 data points for 20 species, with 32 county records. Cumulative butterfly stats are now 121.2 avg spp/co, or 93.4% of 

projection. The one moth STATE record is actually only a name change. Only about 5% of normal total individuals of all Lepidoptera were 

seen. The Gilpin butterfly count, which normally tallies about 100 species, gathered only 81 species in 2004 despite a nice, mostly sunny 

day with many mud puddles.

UTAH 

Gillette reported several interesting records , one dating back to 1877. The counties with the fewest butterfly + skipper species now stand 

at 102 each, and there are 50 species recorded from every one of the 29 counties , which leads all western states in this category . Eastern 

states have fewer total species , but more uniform habitats and butterfly fauna in all counties . For example , Connecticut has 113 species in 

its best county [New Haven], but 68 species known from all 8 counties . In the large western states, with more variat ion in habitats among 

counties , I do not believe that 68 species will ever be found from each and every county of anyone western state. Cumulative Utah stats 

for butterflies + skippers are 117.5 avg spp/co, or 93.3% of projection . Thanks to all 7 contributors for a total of 59 data points from Utah in 

2004 , including 56 county records for 26 bf/sk/moth species .

NEBRASKA 

State Coordinator Neil Dankert noted that aided by a large number of late spring/early summer strays, 2004 was an above-average year for 

diversity in Nebraska, with 115 species reported . This tied the 2002 total and is second only to the 1998 record of 120 species. The early 

season influx of southem species included H. phyleus, B. philenor , K. Iyside (no records since 1992), P. sennae, E. lisa, E. nicippe, L. 

marina, A. vanillae and P. texana. In late September C. lacinia (normally rare) was locally common in several south-central counties . 

Resident butterfly numbers were average with the exception that G. Iygdamus and P. bairdii were noticeably absent from normally reliable 

locations across the entire state. As a result of 2004 collecting C. pegala is now listed from all 93 Nebraska counties. Steve Spomer found 

P. massasoit at the Boone county marsh where it was rediscovered in 2001, suggesting there is a viable population there. Barb and loren 

Padelford photographed a rare aberrant V. carduii (form elymi) in Omaha on 29 September. Nine reporters found 107 county records.

freezes during June brought emergences for many species to an abrupt halt. The flight of all Hesperia spp. was consequently all but 

absent from badlands counties in the southwest. Hesperia dacotae appeared in normal numbers in the northeast , but almost three weeks 

later than usual. Survey work at two national historic sites revealed several county records from specimens in previously unexamined park 

collections , and survey work in the badlands produced a new state record, Euphilotes ancilla , in Golden Valley County.

Bordelon (CWB) reported another "Banner Year" in Texas . Rainfall was over-abundant for most of the state; especially in June, where 

rainfall totals for the month were reported 23" above normal in some East Texas Counties. Harris County (Houston) recorded 17" above 

average for June. Lombardini (JBL) reported that heavy rains ruined most of the Panhandle cotton crops. On a brighter note, many exciting 

records were recorded ; mostly butterflies, with nearly 700 entries , thanks to the diligence of so many reporters on a timely basis . Nathalis 

iole became the first butterfly to be recorded in all 254 counties and Colias eurytheme is now recorded for 250 counties . Many thanks to 

Ray Stanford (RES) for his assistance. If not a record year for species , it was certainly a record year for County Records with 572 reported, 

along with 2 State Records , and 10 U.S. records . Simply amazing! Dueto space , everything that was not a County Record simply could 

not be included, and perhaps it was a new record for total species reported . This was an exceptional year, dating back to Freemann, 

according to Mike Ouinn (MAO) , in the 1973 SS. Everyone in this report should be patted on the back for their work . So read, enjoy, and 

be overwhelmed. It doesn't get much better than this.

Summer in the zone consisted of lots of rain, limited sunshine and cool to moderate temperatures, with very few hot days. Most 

contributors in Ontario reported that butterfly numbers were down in general , with moth numbers also down but to a lesser extent , though 

poor weather led to a fair number of quiet nights at the moth sheet . In southern Ontario, regular migrants (ie. Vanessa spp.) were present, 

but in low numbers. Danaus plexippus had a very poor year, being scarce all season and with a very sparse fall migration . There were few 

rare southern migrants this year, two notable exceptions being the seventh record in 117 years of Thysania zenobia in Ontario, the first 

since 1985; and a single Panoquina ocola, only the fourth year that this species has been recorded in southern Ontario . Three Ascalapha 

odorata were also recorded , two in Ontario and one in Quebec. 

ONTARIO 

In 2004 there was one Canada record (a noctuid) and three Provincial records (two geometrids and a tineid). Several recently determined 

microlepidoptera new to Canada and Ontario taken in the last few years are also included . David Beadle and David Bree sent digital photos 

on CD, confirming many interesting moth observations from 2004 .

Below average temperatures were the rule throughout the zone this season . Spring was particularly cool and wet. Butterfly numbers 

continue to decline, continuing a disturbing three year trend . Coenonympha tullia inornata continues to spread southward in Michigan and 

Wisconsin. Relatively few migratory species appeared northward, with low numbers of individuals seen. Monarchs arrived later than 

average , but numbers remained very low throughout the season. The introduced European Noctuid Apamea unanimis continues to 

spread , being newly recorded in two Wisconsin sites. 

ILLINOIS 

SWK reported a wet spring in northern Illinois, but dry conditions in mid to late summe r. Fall was rainy. Butterfly numbers were generally 

low, except for Papilio glaucus , which was found to be more widespread and numerous than usual. SCB noted a continued decline in 

Catoca la numbers over the past three years, and a disturbing decline in Monarchs this season .

MICHIGAN 

MCN observed abnormal weather conditions in Michigan , with one of the coolest summers to occur in the past 125 years. Lansing's 

highest temperature was 89 degrees on June 8, yet May was one of wettest ever recorded! Many butterflies were noticeably down this 

year, probably due to the peculiar weather during the entire season. Coenonympha tullia inornata continues to spread into the southern 

half of the Lower Peninsula . Numbers of migrating butterflies and Noctua pronuba were noticeably down this year.

WISCONSIN 

Temperatures were below average for most of the season, with frequent and often heavy rain prevalent. Spring conditions were cool and 

wet, with May being one of the wetttest in recent memory. Dismal conditions hampered field work and delayed emergences of many 

spring species . Summer was erratic, with August temperatures being far below average but September above average. Numbers of most 

butterfly species continue to be significantly depressed , and moth numbers seemed less than usual as well. It was not a particularly good 

season for migratory butterflies. Pyrgus communis and Euptoieta claudia were recorded northward early in the season, but few other 

species were seen in August and September . Interestingly, JAE found several species in SE Wisconsin in October. Monarchs arrived 

later than average , but numbers remained very low throughout the season.

Patricia Mora Ascencio, Yasmine Sandoval Minuto, and Jose Luis Salinas Gutierrez (MSS) reported butterflies species from Viveros de 

Coyoacan, Distrito Federal , Mexico , placed at 2270 m above sea level. With extreme coordinates 19:21:05 Nand 99:10:34 W. We found a 

total of 19 species, distributed across the months of January, February, March , April , May , June , July , August, September, and October in 

2003 . To date, a total 2 Papilionidae, 6 Pieridae , 8 Nymphalidae, 2 Lycaenidae, and 1 Hesperiidae represented by 598 records . The 

Viveros de Coyoacan is an urban forest in Mexico City. There are some species of plants in the site Eucaliptus globulus, Fraxinus uhdei, 

Ligustrum lucidum, Cupressus lindleyi, Ery1hrina spp., Cupressus spp ., and Buddleja cordata . Other kinds are Lantana spp ., Rosa spp. , 

Geranium spp ., Phymosia rosea , Retama spp. The Viveros is the first reserve for spreading woody species in Mexico 

City. 

Blanca Claudia Hernandez Mejia (BCH) conducted a faunal study in the Municipality of Malinalco, Estado de Mexico . Several localities 

were studied, among which "Colonia Juarez" was the most diverse, with more than 100 species. This site is situated between 18° 47' 58" 

Nand 99° 27' 18" W, at an altitude of 1111 m. above sea level. The site is composed of a canyon with seteep slopes. One slope is 

covered with subtropical deciduous forest , combined with cactus in the genera Pereskia and Stenocereus. The opposing slope is devoted 

to agricultural uses , primarily including crops of corn , coffee and flowers , as well as orchards of plum , banana, mango and avacado. In the 

steepes t parts of the canyon, elemen ts of the original vegetation still remain, which provide shade for the bordering coffee plants. In open 

areas , a good divers ity of herbs , legumes and other flowe ring plants 

occur.
