Info Request: checkered white butterfly (Pontia protodice)

[Scott Smedley]

	During this upcoming field season, my students and I are 
hoping to start a project examining potential larval defenses in the 
checkered white butterfly (Pontia protodice).  We are interested in 
learning about any sizeable populations in the northeastern U.S. that 
are accessible for field observation and potential collection of some 
adults to start a lab colony.  In addition to location, information 
on local  flight periods and larval host plant use would be helpful, 
if known.

	Thanks for considering this request.

Sincerely,
Scott Smedley
