Phoebis Sennae are abundant in Cumberland and Cape May counties, New
Jersey, right now.  They seem to have been increasing in abundance since
mid-July.  Of more interest, is a huge influx of Eurema lisa that has
occured within the last week.  On 22 Aug. I saw 30-40 in two fields near
the Delaware Bay.  This is probably more than I have ever seen in a whole
season in the past.  I haven't checked my notes, but I don't recall
recording it at all in the last two years.
