Wisconsin butterflies redesign

What’s new?

  • There’s a new robber fly guide, in addition to the butterflies and tiger beetles.
  • Compare images side-by-side with the lightbox on any of the species pages. (Find it in the bottom-right corner of your window.) Helps if you’re confused about the differences between two species.
  • Track your sightings over time — just create an account and sign in to see all your past sightings.

SWBA field trips

The Southern Wisconsin Butterfly Association (SWBA, pronounced “Sweeba”), is our local branch of the North American Butterfly Association. Their eight different field trips this summer throughout southern Wisconsin look like great fun, both for seasoned butterfly watchers and novices.
