ABUNDANCE in North Carolina: Uncommon to locally common in the upper Coastal Plain and the eastern half of the Piedmont; uncommon in the lower Coastal Plain and in the western Piedmont; rare in the mountains. |
FLIGHT PERIOD in North Carolina: Apparently two broods. Adults overwinter and can be seen on warm days in winter; primary emergence begins in early March. These individuals fly to mid- or late April. The first new brood begins around early May and flies into summer (until September?). The second brood flies in the fall and then overwinters. |
