A few years back I wrote a <a HREF="http://www.fort.usgs.gov/products/publications/539/539.pdf" rel="nofollow">report</A> on tallgrass prairies that used the regal fritillary as one of the key indicators. There is some text on p. 9 about it's needs. Many refuges are trying to restore floristically diverse tallgrass (and other) prairie types, to benefit declining birds, rare butterflies, and for the plant community itself, which is very rare. It's great that you got to see the fritillary, and that you are getting this field experience. K – Way cool!
