These pages are intended as a resource for people who are interested in studying the Euphydryas group of Butterflies. Much of the information will be of a technical nature of interest mainly to researchers as it covers publications in scientific journals. It is intended that eventually some references will be provided with links which lead to brief details about the paper in question.

The Checkerspot Gallery, however, contains a selection of pictures which I have taken during my studies. These should be of wider interest.

The list of scientific papers is as detailed as possible but inevitably I will have missed some. Notifications for further additions to the list should be sent to Neil@nwjones.demon.co.uk
