Description

The purpose of this study was to assess the current distribution and abundance of eight disjunct butterfly populations that are closely associated with the native grasslands of the Peace River Parkland natural sub-region of northwestern Alberta and to make recommendations for further monitoring and management. All of the butterfly populations surveyed have very narrow geographic ranges and specific habitat requirements making them particularly susceptible to habitat loss.
