FW: PURPLE LESSER FRITILLARY

[Grkovich, Alex]

> Does anyone know of any locations in northern Maine (Aroostook Co) for the
> Purple Lesser Fritillary (Boloria chariclea grandis? The species has been
> found at Lac Frontiere, Quebec, near the Quebec/Maine border, and a good
> sized colony is (or was) found in a huge bog located 5 miles north of
> Edmunston, NB along Trans-Canada Hwy. And as far as that bog is concerned,
> a Hydro-Quebec building was built a few years ago right over the drier
> part of the bog where the colony occurred, and there are conflicting
> reports as far as whether it still occurs there at this time. Has anyone
> visited the site recently, and if so, seen the species there?
