"Endangered, 2016." “COSEWIC would like to acknowledge Colin Jones for writing the status appraisal summary [...]. This status report and was overseen and edited by Dr. Paul Grant, Co-chair of the COSEWIC Arthropods Specialist Subcommittee"--Production note, p. [ii]. Includes bibliographical references (p. vii). "This lupine-feeding butterfly has been confirmed from only two localities in Canada. It inhabits oak savannas in southern Ontario, a habitat that has undergone substantial declines and alterations. Larval host-plant populations have been greatly reduced. There have been no confirmed reports of this butterfly since 1987, but there have been no intensive surveys for the species since 2003. This, combined with its similarity with other duskywings, makes it possible that it still occurs but has been overlooked. Designated Endangered in April 2006. Status re-examined and confirmed in April 2016"--Assessment summary, p. iii. gccst Endangered species gccst Butterflies gccst Nature conservation Grant, Paul. Canada. Environment Canada.
