Biological illustrator Kim Moss teamed up with Ecologist Dr. Diane Debinski and Ph.D. student Simone Durney to create the iBook \u201c<strong>Wings that Make Waves,<\/strong>\u201d which is focused on using butterflies as bioindicators. Moss and Debinski first met at Iowa State University when Debinski came to one of Moss\u2019s biological illustration classes. Students were assigned the task of illustrating images that depicted the results of scientific research that Debinski was conducting, which led to them joining forces to apply for a grant from the Disney Conservation Foundation to do similar work on a larger scale with the Clodius Parnassian butterfly (<em>Parnassius clodius)<\/em> as a focal species.\u00a0 Debinski and Durney wanted to make the story of their research more accessible to the general public, park visitors, and K-12 teachers. \u00a0Durney brought her \u201cSTEM Storytellers\u201d skills (STEM= Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) and Moss added her artistic, design, and video skills to the project to create this beautiful iBook.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/books.apple.com\/us\/book\/wings-that-make-waves\/id1599810347\">You can download the iBook<\/a> to be viewed on an iPad, Mac, or iPhone (Note that you have to hit a \u201cbuy\u201d button, but the download is free.)

They will be linking this information to a website in the near future. Note that there are lots of embedded videos in the iBook that are best viewed on an iPad, but the pdf will give you a general overview of the work.\u00a0 Feel free to share this information with others too.<\/p>\n<p><figure style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.montana.edu\/assets\/images\/x8196\/image3.JPG?t=1539630426\" width=\"560\" height=\"420\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Montana State University ecology professor and department head Diane Debinski, left, and research assistants Erin McCall and Logan Crees, study butterflies during a July research trip in an alpine meadow near Jackson, Wyoming.
