John Abbot's Butterfly Drawings for William Swainson
VOLUME 61, NUMBER 1 1 J OURNAL OF T HE L EPIDOPTERISTS’ S OCIETY Volume 61 2007 Number 1 Journal of the Lepidopterists’ Society 61(1), 2007, 1–20 JOHN ABBOT’S BUTTERFLY DRAWINGS FOR WILLIAM SWAINSON, INCLUDING GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT ABBOT’S ARTISTIC METHODS AND WRITTEN OBSERVATIONS JOHN V. C ALHOUN1 977 Wicks Dr., Palm Harbor, FL 34684 ABSTRACT. Between 1816 and 1818, artist-naturalist John Abbot completed 103 drawings of insects for English naturalist William Swain- son. The history of these illustrations is reviewed, leading up to their rediscovery in 1977 in the Alexander Turnbull Library, Wellington, New Zealand. Four of these drawings are figured. The adults in the 21 butterfly drawings are identified and the figures of larvae and pupae are as- sessed for accuracy. The illustrated plants are also identified and their status as hosts is examined. Aspects of Abbot’s life history notes are dis- cussed, including his spelling, grammar, and use of Latin names. His notes for Swainson are transcribed and analyzed. A review of Abbot’s art- work indicates that he duplicated many of his compositions for 20–25 years. He sometimes portrayed erroneous figures of larvae, pupae, and hostplants. Figures of immatures were sometimes fabricated using other species as models. He also applied duplicate figures of larvae to more than one species. Abbot may have sent another set of insect drawings to Swainson in 1830. Ninety-nine smaller drawings at the Turnbull Li- brary are attributed to both Abbot and Swainson. Six of these illustrations are figured. Abbot’s notes for Swainson suggest that at least three butterfly species are now more abundant than during the early nineteenth century, while three others are probably less widespread than for- merly.

Interactions Between Butterflies (Lepidoptera: Rhopalocera) and Plant (Spermatophyta: Magnoliophyta) in South Central Idaho

Box 176, Jefferson City MO 65101 *Current Address: University of Missouri Delta Research Center, PO Box 160, Portageville, MO. 63873 [email protected] Received: 9-XI-2009 Accepted: 11-XI-2009 Introduction Butterflies are charismatic conservation taxa for reasons of public interest (Pyle 1984, Fox et al. 2006), their role as bioindicators (Hammond and McCorkle 1984, New 1990, Thomas et al. 2004), pollination services (Ehrlich 2003), and prey for other species (Guppy and Shepard 2001). The US endangered species list (USFWS 2009) contains 26 butterflies and two moths—not because moths are in less need of conservation, but because public concern does not extend to what are often cryptic and nocturnal species. The foundation of insect conservation is a basic understanding of species occurrence, distribution, density, biology, and public outreach. Caterpillars are often limited to a single host plant, but adult butterflies utilize a wide variety of plants as nectar sources. For many holometabolous insects, the quality and availability of nutrient resources during the adult stage correlates with fecundity, egg weight, and longevity (Boggs 1997, Mevi- Schütz and Erhardt 2002, O'Brien et al. 2004). Nectar, a primary nutrient source for adult Lepidoptera, varies by plant species in both its carbohydrate and constituent components which can affect fecundity (Romeis and Wäckers 2002).

Sentinels on the Wing: the Status and Conservation of Butterflies in Canada
Sentinels on the Wing The Status and Conservation of Butterflies in Canada Peter W. Hall Foreword In Canada, our ties to the land are strong and deep. Whether we have viewed the coasts of British Columbia or Cape Breton, experienced the beauty of the Arctic tundra, paddled on rivers through our sweeping boreal forests, heard the wind in the prairies, watched caribou swim the rivers of northern Labrador, or searched for song birds in the hardwood forests of south eastern Canada, we all call Canada our home and native land. Perhaps because Canada’s landscapes are extensive and cover a broad range of diverse natural systems, it is easy for us to assume the health of our important natural spaces and the species they contain. Our country seems so vast compared to the number of Canadians that it is difficult for us to imagine humans could have any lasting effect on nature. Yet emerging science demonstrates that our natural systems and the species they contain are increas- ingly at risk. While the story is by no means complete, key indicator species demonstrate that Canada’s natural legacy is under pressure from a number of sources, such as the conversion of lands for human uses, the release of toxic chemicals, the introduction of new, invasive species or the further spread of natural pests, and a rapidly changing climate. These changes are hitting home and, with the globalization and expansion of human activities, it is clear the pace of change is accelerating. While their flights of fancy may seem insignificant, butterflies are sentinels or early indicators of this change, and can act as important messengers to raise awareness.

AN ANNOTATED SUPPLEMENT to the STATE LIST of LOUISIANA BUTTERFLIES and SKIPPERS by GARY N. Ross and EDWARD N. LAMBREMONT INTRODU
148 Vo1.l7: no.3 AN ANNOTATED SUPPLEMENT TO THE STATE LIST OF LOUISIANA BUTTERFLIES AND SKIPPERS by GARY N. Ross and EDWARD N. LAMBREMONT INTRODUCTION Additional collections and information gathered since the publication of an annotated Louisiana list of Rhopalocera (Lambremont, 1954) are sufficient to require the publication of a supplementary revision. Except for one report of a mass flight of Panoquina ocola (Edwards) by PENN ( 1955), another report of a new larval food plant of Erynnis zarucco (Lucas) by KENDALL (1960), and of a sight record of Speyeria diana (Cramer) reported by MATHER and MATHER (1958), no further infor mation on the butterflies of the state has been published. The present supplement adds eleven new names to the state list, n.ine of which are new state records based on collected material. This supplement generally follows the original format. Nomenclature usage follows EHRLICH and EHRLICH (1961), except for the Hesperiidae which follows DOS PASSOS (1960). Only those species that constitute Significant extensions of flight date, abundance, or range, or that are new state or parish records will be discussed. Many additional specimens duplicating the original information were also examined, but no further mention of these will be made at this time. Actual collection data will be given only for new state records, and for a few additional species that modify the original concept of range, flight dates, or larval food plants. The following abbreviations are used: ETA (EDWARD T. ARMSTRONG), ENL (Dr. EDWARD N. L.<\MBREMONT), BLM (BURT L. MONROE), LDN (Dr. L. DALE NEWSOM) , COP (CAHHOLL O.
