Butterflies Seen

NABA Sabino Canyon Spring Count

April 4, 2024
Trip Butterfly Report:

29 people participated in this year’s count, split up into 10 groups.  The above average rainfall for the previous four months (Dec 2023-March 2024), combined with below average temps for each of those months has resulted in noticeably fewer butterflies at this time of year, even in the lower elevation (midtown Tucson). While a survey later in April may have resulted in more individuals and potentially more species, we would have missed the window for things that normally fly at this time.  A major weather system that pushed through the area three days beforehand may have also resulted in the absence of a few species which were seen the week prior. The weather during the survey was nearly perfect (sunny and a high of 83degrees) and if we had 3-4 more similar days prior I suspect numbers would have been better all-around but when looking at the bigger picture it’s all quite interesting!

There was one new species added to the count, Theona Checkerspot, which has never been recorded on the spring or summer counts. This species was presumably only known from Peppersauce Canyon, and may have expanded its range after the Bighorn Fire in 2020.  iNaturalist records seem to support this with 1 record from the front range in 2020 followed by numerous records in 2022 & 2023.  The host plant for this species, indian paintbrush (Castilleja sp.), is a fire adapted species that readily reseeds after these events. It will be interesting to see whether this species continues to maintain the range extension or contracts over time.

2023 Santa Rita Mountains Fall Count

October 7, 2023
Trip Butterfly Report:

There were 8 groups and 19 people participating.  We all worked hard to find butterflies this year, the hottest year ever recorded.  It's the compiler's guess that the heat kept a lot of butterflies from eclosing and possibly killed some of them.  She did notice more butterflies showing up as the weather is cooling, and it's quite possible that our numbers would have been lower if we had held the count one week earlier.  Butterflies found and counted:

  1. Pipevine Swallowtail                         Battus philenor  8

Sabino Canyon Summer Count

July 27, 2023
Trip Butterfly Report:

Thanks to all for coming out and participating in this year’s count! The high temps made it one of the more challenging days in the field but you all did outstanding.  We likely recorded some of the fewest numbers ever at the lower elevations sites so the shift to cover more ground on top definitely paid off.  We found a total of 59 species this year and had record number of at least 4 species: ‘Echo’ Spring Azure, Painted Lady (primarily at Ceanothus fendleri), Taxiles Skipper, and Cassus Roadside Skipper, which were undoubtedly a result of our extra efforts on top.  New for the summer count was a White-striped Longtail.
