Join Natural Habitat Evanston at Rotary International's 3rd Fl. Auditorium with Doug Taron, Curator of Biology and Vice President of Research and Conservation, Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum.
Doug Taron from the Illinois Butterfly Monitoring Network tracks long-term trends in butterfly populations. He sees a significant decline in abundance from 1997 to 2017 both regionally and in individual counties. He will discuss his research, which also includes dragonflies and damselflies, as measured by the Illinois Odonate Survey.
