There are my observations for yesterday, June 5th 1999 in St-Fabien, PQ,

*  I would like to have more informations about the status of that
species.  Is there only one specie present in 4 different forms ?  In my
region (St-Fabien) that butterfly only breed one time a year, so it
"produce" only three forms ( marginata, lucia and violacea).  However,
south of (about) the 46°N, they breed twice to produce the neglecta
form.  It happened one time that I caught a neglecta specimen in my
village (48°N or so).  It was in 1995, August 17th I think.  That year,
the summer was particulary hot.  Maybe it helped the Spring azur to
produce a summer form.  Probably it will be the same thing this year, in
1999 because the developpement of this butterfly was accelarate by the
good weather.  Anyway, at some places, in Basse-côte-nord, PQ, for
example, there is only one form that can appear, the lucia one.  Is it a
subspecie for that reason ??  Is it the same for my region who produce
only one breed of that specie?  I would like to have good and accurate
answers please.
