Sachem (Atalopedes campestris) |
| Home | Butterflies & Skippers | Dragonflies & Damselflies | Wildflowers |
| DISTRIBUTION in North Carolina: Statewide; occurring in all provinces, and presumably present in all 100 counties. |
| ABUNDANCE in North Carolina: Common to abundant in the Piedmont, common in the mountains, fairly common to common in the upper Coastal Plain, but generally uncommon near the coast. This is one of the most often seen skippers in the state from July onward. |
| FLIGHT PERIOD in North Carolina: Probably three broods, but the first is a small one. The first brood downstate is from early April to late May or early June, and in the mountains from early May to mid-June. There are apparently two large and overlapping broods everywhere from mid-June to early November. This is one of the few skippers that is common in the Piedmont from late June to mid-July, when most other grass skippers are between broods. |
