Make your New Year\u2019s resolution to use eButterfly! With all the improvements we\u2019ve made, eButterfly is easier to use than ever. Give it a try today, for yourself, for watchers everywhere, and for the butterflies we all care about.<\/p>\n

Every butterfly observation has value. Whether it is a rare species from a remote northern bog, or an observation of a Monarch in a backyard\u00a0\u2014 every sighting\u00a0you contribute is helpful. The world is a big place, and to understand what is truly happening with butterfly populations requires contributions from as many people and places as possible.<\/p>\n

In 2015 alone, 560 species were reported to eButterfly represented by nearly 10,000 checklists and over 18,000 photographs! Although every sighting is absolutely useful, we would also like to make sure that you understand how checklists that include all species you observed, and checklists that have information about distance covered and time spent observing butterflies\u00a0are most valuable for research and conservation.<\/p>\n
