T.E.A. Seasonal Summaries of Lepidoptera

Soon it will be 40 years since the TEA begun its program for publishing annual summaries of Lepidoptera encountered in Ontario.

The most recent includes records from 155 individuals throughout Ontario. Each butterfly species is given an individual narrative account of its prevalence, distribution, flight periods, and any change from previous years. The latest issue includes full colour photographs of various life stages on the front and back cover and 4 inside pages. Coverage of moths varies from year to year depending on the availability of volunteers.

Ontario Lepidoptera for 2008 is for sale. Prices: in Canada: $15 each; in USA: $15 US surface post; $20 US airmail; international, inquire for rates.

Older summaries are free for download in three full-text-searchable pdf files which contain multiple summaries: 1969-1989, 1990-1999 and 2000-2007. Save the files to disk and use Adobe Reader to view the bookmarks to navigate easily to individual summaries and the components of those summaries. If these files are too big for convenient dowload, then download one summary at a time by clicking on the year desired in the list below.

Ontario Lepidoptera 2003-04: see the Contents and Intro.pdf. Data for all records of all species received for the years 2003 and 2004 (much more data than can be included in the printed summary!) have been included in two tables available as downloadable PDF files: 2003 records.pdf and 2004 records.pdf. A further pdf provides a table of some records from 1999-2002 that were not featured in earlier summaries: Additional pre-2003 records.pdf. In each of these tables, the observers’ names have been abbreviated in order to save space. These abbreviations and the full names are featured in Contributors and Observers.pdf
