Saving AR State Butterfly

OUR PURPOSE: Utilize conservation education and citizen science to minimize challenges to

Arkansas’ State Butterfly, Diana Fritillary (Argynnis diana).


OUR GOALS:

  1. Create public awareness regarding creation and protection of habitat, the importance of providing ​essential native plant nectar (May-Oct) and the need for responsible pesticide and herbicide use.
  2. Encourage Arkansans and visitors to become Citizen Scientists, posting sighting photos of pollinators ​to www.inaturalist.org which is critical for providing decision makers much needed data.
