Terminology help

[Stillwaugh, Donald M]

Good Morning,

In need of some help with terminology.  We are QAQCing our species lists
for various sites including a barrier island.  I want to make the
distinction between those lepidoptera species which are reproducing on
the island and those that stray over (much the same way birders
distinguish those species which are nesting on site as a subset of the
total species observed list).  My question is, do I use "breeding on
site"?  "reproducing on site" just sounds bad to me....is there a better
term out there?   Maybe "residents" ?

Thanks in advance for any input,

Don
