Please contact the National Trust of the Cayman Islands
if this butterfly is seen on the Cayman islands. Smith, Miller and Miller do explain
that although extremely rare in South Florida, two adults were recorded in 1979
and a single male was collected in Jamaica in 1960. This butterfly is strictly a
Northern butterfly and should not be found here.
