    The Mourning Cloak may be the longest-lived butterfly in the western US. Adults live from 10 to 12 months. Most adults overwinter. Apparently some of the population migrates south each fall.

         The name Red Admiral is a latter-day contraction of its older name, "Red Admirable". It is not closely related to the true admirals (in the genus Limenitis), but is instead a lady (in the genus Vanessa).

  101. West Coast Lady ______ BC,CC,WA  (PW:29) (K:205)  Flies all-year in coastal CA, several flights
    Vanessa annabella

         Though long known to science, the West Coast Lady was not given its current scientific name until 1971. The  scientific name that had been ascribed to it for many years was Vanessa carye.
    But when the curator at the Smithsonian Institution, William Field, revised the painted ladies in the genus Vanessa, in the early 1970s, he found that V. carye actually applied to a South American species, leaving the West Coast Lady without a scientific epithet.
    He gallantly remedied that lack of identity by naming the species after his young daughter, Annabella.
    He also separated the true ladies from the "admirals" (in Vanessa), resurrecting for them the 1807 genus Cynthia.
    That has since gone back to being a subgenus, but either way the West Coast Lady has had an very feminine appellation of either Vanessa annabella or Cynthia annabella.     
  102. Common Buckeye ______ CC  (PW:30) (K:207)  Flies Apr-Oct, 2 to 3 broods; all year in coastal lowland CA

    Many of the colonies of Monarchs that now overwinter in California do so in eucalyptus trees.
