1 Butterflies and Native Plants: Diversity, Connections & Opportunities Jaret C. Daniels, Ph.D.
2 Florida is the third most floristically diverse state in the U. S. with over 4,200 species of ferns and seed plants; over 3,600 are native or naturalized flowering species. Supports an extensive diversity of terrestrial ecological communities, harboring many endemic or imperiled species. Some 175 plant species are nearly endemic to the state s boundaries. The butterfly fauna of Florida is the most diverse of any state east of the Mississippi with some 187 recorded taxa. Correlation between plant species richness and composition - and butterfly diversity
3 To much extent, this relationship is the result of a life cycle that requires availability of both larval host and adult floral nectar resources. Tight association (ecological tracking) between larval host plants and presence of butterfly populations; most butterfly species dependent on native larval host resources, often in only one or a few plant families.

45 Butterflies offer Tremendous Public Appeal They are approachable, easily attracted and easy to observe They can be found in urban, suburban and rural locations Popularity of butterfly watching and gardening continue to increase nationwide This popularity has the potential to expand native plant availability, use and interest
46 Future Needs an Directions Increased public education about landscaping with native plants Increased market opportunities for native plants - chicken and egg (demand vs. availability) - Florida Wildflower Growers Cooperative - Capitalize on popularity of butterfly gardening Increased emphasis on community beautification projects Expanded emphasis on native landscaping by commercial developments, small businesses Increased research on tie with native pollinators (forage resources, use in agricultural settings, ecological restoration, species conservation) Changes in land management practices (e.g. ROW, roadside mowing)
