Butterfly Lists of the St. Louis Area

Taxonomic List

Grouped according to taxonomic families (with photo links)

Checklists

Researched and designed by Jeannie and Jim Moe, with input from Jim Ziebol, these two checklists are downloadable as either Excel or PDF files.

Checklist 1 (Short format)

Lists all butterfly species on one page, with a key for frequency (common, uncommon, rare and casual). Number of individuals can be recorded.

Checklist 2 (Long format)

Lists butterflies on two pages, with the added feature of an abundance chart. The shaded months (Jan-Dec) show when each species can be seen.

Both of these checklists are arranged in taxonomic order and are excellent tools for recording your butterfly sightings on your next field outing!
