2. 1990 Weather (from Climatic Perspectives by Environment Canada).

March - On average, March in Ontario was mild, with below normal snowfall andprecipitation totals. On March 13 to 15 temperatures soared to record low 20's C.,the earliest 20·C maximum ever recorded in Ontario.

AgrjJ - Wet and cold the first three weeks and then record hot and dry conditionsthe final week. However, during the final week winter-like conditions coverednorthwestern Ontario. Overall, southern, central and northeastern Ontario recordedtheir warmest April since 1987. During the final week afternoon highs topped 30·Cacross the southern half of the province. On the 25th the highest temperatures everwere recorded at Kingston, Windsor, Ottawa, Muskoka, Sault Ste. Marie and otherlocations.

~ - This was generally a cloudy, cool and wet month with above normal precipitation in all areas. From the 10th to 12th, winter made a brief reappearance, withsnow flurries as far south as Windsor and near record snowfalls in northeasternOntario.

~ - This was a wet and cloudy month with temperatures within ~ degree of normalacross the province. Rainfall was plentiful especially in northern Ontario. Kapuskasing had the third wettest June since 1938, while Moosonee experienced the secondwettest June since 1932 and Sioux Lookout recorded its wettest June since 1941. Onthe other hand, dry weather prevailed in parts of eastern Ontario and the NiagaraPeninsula.

~ - This was a comfortable summer month province-wide. However, it ranked as thecoolest July since 1985 or 1986 at most locales. Sarnia averaged l·C below normalwhile Moosonee was the warmest since 1981. Rainfall was near normal across most ofOntario.

Aygust - Was warmer than normal. Rainfall revealed a definite contrast between wetweather in the south and much drier conditions across central and northern Ontario.Like July 1990, August had only a few hot days with readings of 30·C or higher.

September - It was the coolest since 1986 as cool, generally cloudy weather prevailed across the province. Rainfall was quite variable with southwestern Ontariobeing extremely wet while sections of northern Ontario experienced a relatively drymonth.

October - It was mainly cloudy and cool with abundant precipitation across all butnorthwestern and northeastern Ontario. The first three weeks were very wet whileduring the final week, we experienced a sunny, dry Indian summer.

4.1 Vo1tinism in Pferfs napf by Dr. W.J.D. Eberlie

1. P1er1s nsp1 o7ersces - fourth brood reared in 1990

Last year I reported in the T.E.A. Seasonal SUmMary that I had reared a third broodof P. nsp1 and mentioned that I had suspected for a long time that this butterflyfed on wild watercress in the summer broods rather than on Dentsris diphy77s as itdoes in the spring. The Dentsris has died off by the time the second brood emergesat the beginning of July, so of course, there must be an alternative food plant.However, I have consistently failed to see the females of the butterfly laying eggson the watercourse. This year I again watched a bed of watercourse quite regularlyand again failed to see any oviposition. However, this year more than ever, adultswere on the wing in the area of the watercourse at the edge of a woodlot consistently throughout the summer. On the 10th of August, which was about the time theadults of the third brood emerged last year, I searched the watercourse rather morethoroughly than usual. This is a thankless task because the bed I looked at israther a large one, and one would really need waders in order to reach the middleof the area to look properly. I then remembered an article on oviposition that Ihad read several years ago (Jones, R.E.) in which "edge effects" were describedwhere female P. rspse tend to lay more eggs of peripheral plants, rather than inthe middle of a clump. So I searched for some peripheral plants of watercress andfound scattered plants in a damp area a few metres away from the main watercoursebed. There I did find five eggs and on searching the same area again two dayslater I found one egg and one newly-hatched larva. These were reared, which iseasy to do because watercourse keeps fresh and continues to grow when placed in ajar of water. Last year, the larvae hatched early and grew very quickly, the wholelife cycle taking about 25 days. The same thing happened this year, estimating thatthe ova when found were about 3-4 days old. The adults emerged from the 31st ofAugust until the 12th of September, except that two of them that emerged on the 6thof September were not nspf but rspselI continued to check the area for adults throughout August and in early Septemberand I found nsp1 flying on many days during August (4, 8, 10, 12, 17 & 23) and thenthere was a gap until several more were seen in flight on September 2nd. Some ofthese were quite fresh and appeared newly emerged. Therefore, there seems to be nodoubt that there can be a fourth generation of P. nsp1 in Northumberland County.

It is interesting to note that the textbook statements concerning vo1tinism inthis, as in many other species, vary considerably. For example, Howe (1975) writesthat there are "two or three broods in all areas, including northern Canada". Op1erand Krizek (1984) says "two full generations and a partial third", while Scott(1986) says "three broods in the south and one brood in the north". With thesesomewhat conflicting statements, it seems sensible to try and define the number ofbroods for each species in Ontario, especially when the climatic changes that weare currently experiencing may well lead to further changes in vo1tinism in thefuture. So I would like to suggest that my observations indicate that P. nsp1usually has three broods in southern Ontario and a partial fourth brood, at leastin some years. Presumably, some pupae of the third and fourth generations andpossibly the second generation, do not emerge in the summer but overwinter toproduce the first brood in the spring.

4.2. Voltinism in Clossiana bellona by Dr. W.J.D. Eberlie

When I first came to Northumberland County twenty-four years ago, this butterflywas on the wing in May and early June and then again in August and sometimes earlySeptember. But in recent years, occasional specimens have been seen in July aswell. This has certainly been the case in other areas too, as indicated in theT.E.A. Summary records where July specimens have been consistently recorded. Ihave reared bellona several times in the past; August ova resulting in May/Junebutterflies after hibernation as an early instar larva and June ova resulting inadults emerging in August. This year, I obtained ova from a June-caught female andthe resulting adults emerged around July 8th, in fact from July 1st to 12th, adultswere abundant in the meadow where I had collected the original female in June(actually June 1st). Adults were again seen in the meadow in late August and earlySeptember, so this year there were definitely three broods of C. bellona.As with P. napi above, reference volumes make varying statements as to this speciesvo1tinism.

~.3 The Status of the Karner Blue & Frosted Elfin in Ontario in 1990 by Q.F. Hess

In recent years, the Karner Blue (Lyc1ades melissa samuelis) occurred in twolocalities in Ontario, i.e. near Port Franks (7) and near St. Williams (4). It is aLupine feeder.

The Port Franks population was monitored intensively, especially the YogiBear/Port Franks Estates/Karner Blue Sanctuary areas. According to Terry Crabe ofthe Ministry of Natural Resources only one male adult was observed during bothflight periods in 1990 - June 25 (1 M)(QFH). Field checks indicated that the WildLupine in the Port Franks and Pinery Provo Park localities was severely decimated.Terry Crabe advised that he believes this is a result of heavy browsing by anover-population of the White-tailed Deer in the Pinery/Port Franks areas.

More Karner Blue habitat was lost in 1990 as building of country homes continued in the Port Franks Estates and at "Florida North" in the Yogi Bear area.

Near St. Williams, field checks of the Karner Blue and Frosted Elfin localities encountered neither insect. The main focus of these two species, the Manestraproperty, indicated a severe loss of suitable habitat and Wild Lupine stands.Presumably due to the severe Gypsy Moth defoliation of 1989, competing plants wereable to overcome most Wild Lupine stands, as well as the New Jersey Tea stands andsuccession to another stage is well under way. Management to renew Karner Blue andFrosted Elfin habitat may already be too late. The Karner Blue habitat at Concession Road 6 was also degraded and appears now unsuitable for the Karner Blue andperhaps the Frosted Elfin.

The last encounter with the Karner Blue in the St. Williams locality was in1987 when only two adults were seen. The Frosted Elfin was last encountered in theSt. Williams locality in 1988 when one adult was seen.

-9-

It would appear now that the Karner Blue may be considered extirpated at theSt. Williams locality, and perhaps the Frosted Elfin also. It is ironic that aftersome years of lobbying the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Karner Blue andFrosted Elfin were proclaimed as endangered and included for protection under theEndangered Species Act - R.S.O. on June 5, 1990!

4.4 The West Virginia White in Ontario in 1990 by Q.F. Hess

A news release from the Ministry of Natural Resources dated June 21, 1990advised that the West Virginia White (Pferis virgfnfensfs) which was classified asendangered under the Endangered Species Act R.S.O. is now re-c1assified as rare andis no longer protected under the Act.

The Ministry of Natural Resources contracted with "The Landplan CollaborativeLtd. of Guelph" to carry out "A Two Year Monitoring Study of the West VirginiaWhite Butterfly". Their report for the first year is dated September 1990. Thereport advises that the West Virginia White was found at eight of the thirteenhistorical sites. Sixteen new colonies of the butterfly were found in southwesternOntario in 1990, some of which were 0.5 km from locations previously described in1990, and four of which were 20 km or more away from a 1990 location. This is 26 ,of new sites searched for the butterflies in southern Ontario in 1990.

The range in Peel County was extended northwards nearly to the Devi1'sPulpit. The historic range was also extended further south. On Manitoulin Islandthree new sites were found within 1 km of already known sites. The introduced population near Head lake in Victoria County was thriving. Only one new site was discovered in Frontenac County. The colony found near the mouth of the BatchawanaRiver in the Algoma District was found at two locations. A new colony was found inLanark County near E1phin by Ross Layberry.

In the main, the population numbers for the various colonies noted above wereabout average. The Currie and Robertson Tracts north of Campbe11vi11e had thelargest population numbers, while in the opinion of this writer, the remainingcolonies had relatively sparse populations.

by Alan Wormington

On October 6, 1990, I obtained a rather fresh female specimen of the ZaruccoDusky-Wing (Erynnis zarucco funera7is) at Point Pelee National Park, Essex County.The individual was found at the west side of the park's tip where it was initiallyobserved feeding on Spotted Knapweed (Centaurea macu7osa) , a common flower at thissite.

Zarucco Dusky-Wing currently consists of two subspecies, both of which were,until recently, considered as different species. Nominate zarucco (formerlyZarucco Dusky-Wing) has brown-fringed hindwings and is eastern in distribution,whereas subspecies funera7is (formerly Funereal Dusky-Wing) is found in the desertsouthwest and is characterized by bright white fringes to the hindwings; thefringes on the Point Pelee specimen are bright white, indicating funera7is.

Both subspecies are said to wander north regularly, with sub-speciesfunera7is particularly noted for its long-distance movements. The most northerlyrecords I could locate (from Op1er & Krizek 1984: 212) are single records forIndiana (subspecies funera7is), Connecticut and Pennsylvania (subspecies zarucco);

-12-

the Indiana record is from the northeast corner of the state and wa collected onJuly 1, 1975 (Shull 1987: 41).

Zarucco Dusky Wing (Erynnfs zsrucco funerslfs) at PointPelee National Park, Essex Co., Oct. 6, 1990. Wingspan4.0 cm. (Note: the white fringe of the hindwing is lostagainst the background in this photo)

At the time of writing it is not known if the Point Pelee speci re entsthe first record of Zarucco Dusky-Wing for Ontario and Canada. Both ~ry (1975)and Campbell et al. (1986: 86-88) list the species for Ontario, the latter detailing four supposed specimens collected in 1935 and apparently still extant: thesespecimens require examination to establish their authenticity. Furthermore, itshould be noted that a sight record (perhaps questionable) exists for funerslfs:in 1981 (not 1982 as published by Campbell ibid.) one was reported in Essex Countyat Colchester.

4.8 Toothed Phigalia (Ph1ga71a dent1cu7ata): New to Ontario and Canadaby Alan Wormington

On the rare occasions during winter when the temperature is relatively mildit is not uncommon to find various noctuid moths on the wing, since many overwinterin the adult stage; however, most other moths shouldn't be expected in winter. Forthis reason I was surprised to find a very fresh geometer moth on February 20,1990, clinging to the wall of a restaurant -- "D6ug's Place" -- just north of theentrance to Point Pelee National Park, Essex County.

I collected the specimen and identified it as Toothed Phigalia (Ph1ga7iadent1cu7ata). Since "A Field Guide to the Moths" (Covell 1984: 358) indicated asoutherly range (north only to Virginia and Missouri), the specimen was sent toBiosystematics Research Institute (Ottawa) for confinmation. Both Klaus B. Bolteand J. Donald Lafontaine (Agriculture Canada) confirmed the identification andstated that it was the first known record of the species for Ontario and Canada.

Apparently the species (especially northward) is relatively rare, usuallygreatly outnumbered by the similar The Half-Wing (Ph1ga7ia t1tea). Previously themost northerly records known for denticu7ata are the very isolated records inwest-central Illinois and eastern Pennsylvania (Rindge 1975); in Michigan (adjacentto Essex County) the species has never been recorded (George J. Balogh, pers.comm.). It is probable that the species may be overlooked in the northern part ofits range, including Ontario. Quoting from Rindge (ibid.) on the flight period ofthe adult, he states "most specimens have been captured in January, February andMarch; a few fly in December and in April." This is, of course, a time of yearwhen collectors are rarely searching for moths in Ontario or other northern areas.

My appreciation goes to George J. Balogh of Portage, Michigan, for providingsome background material on the genus Phiga1ia.

4.9 New Moths for Ontario from the Hudson Bay Lowlands by Alan Wormington

During 1990, while employed by the Moosonee office of the Ministry of NaturalResources (Wildlife Habitat Assessment Project), I had the opportunity to collectat several sites in the Hudson Bay Lowlands. Although only a limited number ofmoths were obtained, it was surprising to learn that five species collected are newto Ontario. Details of these five species are as follows:

From Little Sha9amY Riyer moyth (Kenora District), west of Winisk:

Lasionycta 1eucocyc1a a7bertensis (Noctuidae): July 14 (12 fresh); July 16 (1fresh).

Po1ia richardsoni (Noctuidae): June 23 (1 ex. fresh); July 14 (1 fresh); July 15 (1fresh); July 16 (1 fresh).

Syngrapha pari1is (Noctuidae): July 13 (1 ex. fresh).Grammia guense1i (Arctiidae): July 16 (1 worn).

--- all of the above were collected on dry tundra and are widespread arcticspecies; all four species are known from Churchill, Manitoba,

From Moosonee (Cochrane District):

Panthea virgfnarfa species complex (Noctuidae): July 7 (1 fresh).

this unidentified specimen is of an unresolved complex of species whichoccurs throughout western North America, east to Saskatchewan.

The above determinations are by J, Donald Lafontaine of Agriculture Canada;duplicate material has been deposited at that institution in Ottawa (CanadianNational Collection).

1990 was a year during which our knowledge with respect to the Lepidoptera ofOntario was increased. Field work carried out in regions for which our data basewas sketchy provided much of interest. Examples are the work of Lloyd Taman in theTemiskaming District and Alan Wormington and Bob Curry in the Hudson Bay/James Bayregions, where they formed part of the Hudson Bay Lowlands Flora and Fauna HabitatStudy - a three-year project carried out by the Ministry of Natural Resources.

Mr. Taman found that Cercyonfs pega1a had extended its range northwards fromits previously reported range to within 20 miles south of Cochrane. He also reported new 1epidoptera occurrences in the Temiskaming District. These included theGrizzled Skipper, Arctic Skipper, Peck's Skipper Brown Elfin, Hoary Elfin, Question

Mark, Hoary Comma and Viceroy. He also reported that Hyalophora cecropia firstappeared in the Matachewan are about 4 years ago and now one to two are encounteredeach night during the flight season. According to "The Moths of America North ofMexico", fascicle 20.2A, pp. 247, the Cecropia Moth has been recorded at Cochraneand Kapuskasing but is certainly rare there.

Rosemary Scott encountered the Bog Copper in the Byron Bog (london). InAlgonquin Park, near the East Gate, Tom Toyomi Ikeda found Erora laeta and RichardRussell and Michael Runtz (Park Naturalists) encountered a number of Macoun'sArctic, the first report since 1976. The 1990 encounter with 20+ adults was southof Lake Traverse along bush roads through mature jackpine. Richard Russell hascolour slides of the two voucher specimens collected.

Alan Wormington, Bob Curry and others established many new records forOntario in 1990. Besides the first Ontario record of Erynnis zarucco funeralis (seeSection 4.7 herein), notable new or valuable records for various butterfly and mothspecies are reported, especially for the Hudson bay lowlands, the southwest coastof Hudson Bay and the west coast of James Bay. These records include the following(see also Sections 4.8, 4.9 and 6 herein):

The 1990 butterfly records of field data from the Hamilton Study Area (40.2km radius from Dundurn Castle, Hamilton) indicates another year of intense effortby many workers. These records were supplied by Bill Lamond, who may be contactedthrough the Hamilton Naturalists' Club. Bill advises that the highlights for 1990include the following:- first record of the Sleepy Duskywing and the sudden appearance of the Hickory Hairstreak in several localities within the study area. TheGiant Swallowtail appears established in Flamborough Township in an area of abundant Prickly Ash. The Giant Swallowtail is also probably established in the SixNations Indian Reserve near Brantford. Other highlights include new localities forthe West Virginia White, Leonardus Skipper, Mulberry Wing Skipper, Tawny Emperorand Eastern Pine Elfin. The Gray Comma was again common in the Hamilton study area.

Also, Jeff Larson of Windsor encountered Poanes zabu70n (first Ontario record) and Zerene cesonia (last Ontario record was in 1978) in the Windsor area.

A two year monitoring study of the West Virginia White was started in 1990 byLandplan Collaborative of Guelpg for the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources.Some comments on this are included in Section 4 herein. The West Virginia White wasre-classified from Endangered to Rare by the Ministry in June of 1990. This meansthe protection under the Endangered Species Act, R.S.O. was removed. Thus theAggregate Industry is free to inadvertantly reduce essential habitat. At the sametime, the Ministry classified the Karner Blue and the Frodted Elfin as Endangeredand placed them under the protection of The Act. However, field checks over thelast few years indicate that the Karner Blue is probably extirpated in Norfolk andLambton Counties. The Frosted Elfin, subject to a few more years of field checks,may also be extirpated. The reasons seem to be habitat loss due to drought, deerbrowsing and Gypsy Moth defoliation which has speeded plant succession to a stageunfavourable to the Wild Lupine. In addition, there has been habitat destruction inthe Port Franks localities. Another possible reason is the reduction of the antpopulations which engage in protective behaviour on behalf of the larvae.

In 1990, the usual migratory species were encountered in Ontario but themovements were not strong. Notable among these was the Sleepy Orange at Toronto.The Monarch was first recorded in Ontario on April 25th at La Salle (1) and thelast one left for the south the last week of October. The peak migration periods ofthe Monarch in late summer were determined to be as fo110ws:- Lake Ontario - Sept.2 & 3; east coast of Lake Huron between Goderich and Sarnia - Sept. 8 & 9. Allreports received indicate that the number of Monarchs continues to decrease. In1990 there were no gatherings of many migrating Monarchs reported except 100 at theLeslie Spit on October 6.

The Red Admiral was reported as migrating in numbers over central Torontoduring the period May 30 - June 1 by Bill Edmonds. It was also reported by AlanWormington as migrating west along the coast of Hudson Bay on June 5th. There weresouth to south-east winds at the time. This migration was observed in the vicinityof the mouth of the Little Shagamu River at the northwestern extremity of PolarBear Provincial Park.

Spraying programmes for the control of such insects as the Gypsy Moth continued in selected regions of Ontario. Norman Tremblay advises that the sprayingprogrammes in eastern Ontario have had a serious impact on the species occurring inforested areas. He says the most evident imp[act has been on the Tiger Swallowtailpopulations which have been decreasing for the last five years in the regions fromAps1ey (37) east and north to Dorset (38).
