[SoWestLep] Collecting around Eugene

[Andrew Warren]

Hi Bruce,

This is a brief report from Corvallis, OR.  We had a wonderful, dryish,
sunny April here and rain most of this month.  About 20-25 butterfly
species are on the wing now in the area.  The past 5 days have been cool
and rainy (I have heard- I was in Idaho), but it is supposed to be sunny
and nice here by Thursday...  I hit Hwy 58 SE of Eugene on May 20 and did
not get much on the W side of the Cascades (P. eurymedon, B. epithore, E.
comyntas), but found 20 species on the east side near Gilchrist in Klamath
Co.  Most of the early spring species in the Coast Range are already
done flying (Callophrys, Euphydryas editha, overwintering Polygonias).
The Coenonympha are thick right now...  If you are looking for something
in particular, let me know (in a private message)...
