Enhancing native butterfly populations in the Waipara Valley
Abstract
The aims of the work were to investigate which butterflies occur in
habitat types typical of the region, their relative abundance and which
vegetation types are most important for different species. This work examines the factors influencing the
remaining butterfly populations in Waipara and is trying to develop
grower-friendly ways of enhancing them.
