Observation Plots for butterflies

Purpose
Abstract
From 1920 to 1941, Arnold Pictet conducted a rare, elaborate study of butterflies in the Swiss National Park.
BESSON (1998), BOUCHARD & MACHEREZ (2001) and PASCHE (2005) recently updated Pictet’s records on diurnal
Lepidoptera, proposing a network of reference plots for a long-term population study. The three studies are based
on a precise, reproducible sampling method; they also permit to trace population dynamics since 1942.
