  • Rare Native Animals of RI
    RARE NATIVE ANIMALS OF RHODE ISLAND Revised: March, 2006 ABOUT THIS LIST The list is divided by vertebrates and invertebrates and is arranged taxonomically according to the recognized authority cited before each group. Appropriate synonomy is included where names have changed since publication of the cited authority. The Natural Heritage Program's Rare Native Plants of Rhode Island includes an estimate of the number of "extant populations" for each listed plant species, a figure which has been helpful in assessing the health of each species. Because animals are mobile, some exhibiting annual long-distance migrations, it is not possible to derive a population index that can be applied to all animal groups. The status assigned to each species (see definitions below) provides some indication of its range, relative abundance, and vulnerability to decline. More specific and pertinent data is available from the Natural Heritage Program, the Rhode Island Endangered Species Program, and the Rhode Island Natural History Survey. STATUS. The status of each species is designated by letter codes as defined: (FE) Federally Endangered (7 species currently listed) (FT) Federally Threatened (2 species currently listed) (SE) State Endangered Native species in imminent danger of extirpation from Rhode Island. These taxa may meet one or more of the following criteria: 1. Formerly considered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for Federal listing as endangered or threatened. 2. Known from an estimated 1-2 total populations in the state. 3. Apparently globally rare or threatened; estimated at 100 or fewer populations range-wide. Animals listed as State Endangered are protected under the provisions of the Rhode Island State Endangered Species Act, Title 20 of the General Laws of the State of Rhode Island.

  • Butterfly Memory Game Activity
    UAMN Virtual Early Explorers: Wings Butterfly Memory Game Discover Alaska butterflies with a memory game! Materials Needed: Two color copies of Butterfly Memory Cards (or draw your own), scissors, cardstock, glue. Prepare Your Cards: Print the butterfly memory cards directly on cardstock, or print on plain paper and glue to cardstock. Cut out all 12 pairs (24 cards in total) along the solid lines. How To Play: Lay the 24 cards face-down. Take turns flipping over two cards. If the two cards match, the player keeps the pair and goes again. If they don’t match, the player leaves the cards where they are and turns them face-down again. The next player takes their turn. Continue playing until the cards have all been matched and collected. The player with the most pairs is the winner. To adapt the game for younger children, play with fewer pairs. Choose butterflies that look the most different from each other. Look at the butterfly cards and discuss what you see. What kinds of colors, shapes, and sizes do you observe? Observe Butterflies: There are about 80 different species of butterflies in Alaska. keep an eye out for butterflies as the weather gets warmer! Do you recognize any of the butterflies from the game? Right: Canadian Tiger Swallowtail (Papilio canadensis).

The Butterflies of Point Pelee National Park, Ontario. Ontario Nature Guide Number 2 of the Ontario Natural History Press: Leamington. 137 pp. 4 Introduction In respect to conducting local studies on butterflies, Clench (1979) made a number of statements that summarize well the value of such undertakings: “Studies of this kind have been undertaken so seldom that wherever you choose to do so you will be rewarded with significant data, well worth publishing .... Among the most important eventual results of such work will be establishing geographic patterns of variation in brood numbers and timing, larval foodplant choice, abundance levels, and other things about which we are still totally, or almost totally, ignorant.” 5 The List The original "The Butterflies of Point Pelee National Park, Ontario" (Wormington 1983) listed a total of 68 species. Detailed below are new additions, including the year in which they were first recorded (20 species) or added as a result of taxonomic changes (two species). Additions due to taxonomic changes: 1994: Summer Azure (Celastrina neglecta)1 1982: Orange Crescent (Phyciodes cocyta)2 1 Summer Azure: always present 2 Orange Crescent: this species has likely always been present at Point Pelee; its presence was first reported in 1982.
