From 2002 to 2007 volunteer butterfly enthusiasts spent thousands of hours in the field in an effort to record the status and distribution of Vermont butterflies, the first systematic statewide butterfly atlas to be undertaken. As part of this atlas, historic records were digitized from regional collections. In 2004, we examined and digitized all of the butterflies and giant silk moths in the UVM Entomology Research Laboratory Collection for this effort.Sampling Description
