Coexistence and local extinction in two pierid butterflies.
Coexistence and host use by a large community of pierid butterflies: habitat is the templet.
Enzyme electrophoretic studies on the genetic relationships of pierid butterflies (Lepidoptera, Pieridae).
The species experiences favorable periods some years when numbers of the pierid are consistently present at the station, especially from June to August, but out of this period it can mostly be recorded by passing individuals in flight (even disregarding visits to flowers in some cases) or by ovipositing females.
This pierid is seen more frequently at the first three months of the year and a relative abundance may take place in March, probably when the butterfly has attained certain local reproduction.
This pierid disperses frequently in favorable seasons and such adults may fly through the station.
This pierid only occurs as strays or dispersing adults.
This pierid colonizes the areas in favorable years.
The record of this pierid in Camaguey may reflect a wider distribution of the species in Cuba though it is only known from its restricted eastern coastal range mainly around Guantanamo province (Smith et al.
This pierid may attain peaks of abundance in July probably due to an increased seasonal influx of individuals from nearby breeding sites but at the station, this species only occurs as strays or dispersing adults.
This pierid occurs as strays or dispersing adults, often laying eggs on its passing.
This pierid may become numerous during most of the wet season (July-September), but also recorded in abundance in early November and December.
