Details - ©Nicky Davis Adult Female photos right after eclosure Other Female was extracted by Todd Stout on April of 2005 from Taylor Canyon on the West side of the Wasatch Mountains, elevation of 5300 feet, 1.3 miles North Northeast of Weber State University, Weber County, Utah. When this pupa began breaking diapause in February of 2006, Todd sent it to me so I could watch its development. It was kept at a temperature of approximately 75 degrees F., lights on 12-14 hours per day and window shutters open but with no direct sunlight. The adult eclosed mid- morning of February 11, 2006 and was placed in a dark cupboard to allow the wings to harden in a safe place. On February 12th I was able to photograph her safely. Name The Type Locality of A. julia browningi is City Creek Canyon, Salt Lake County, Utah; Skinner. Host Plants
