Thank you! Skipperlings Complete!
Thank you, citizen scientists, for helping complete the Poweshiek skipperling expedition! During this expedition, you saw and transcribed the 155 specimens from the McGuire Center for Lepidoptera and Biodiversity collection. This data will be compiled with other records of Oarisma poweshiek from other institutions so researchers can begin to look for the potential drivers for the sharp decline of populations.
Be on the lookout for another expedition of specimens from the McGuire Center for Lepidoptera and Biodiversity at the Florida Museum of Natural History. And thank you for taking the time to help!
