Abstract:
The Diana fritillary (Speyeria diana) is a forest-dwelling butterfly of high conservation concern in North Carolina. Observations of the Diana fritillary butterfly are reported in a burned oak-pine forest in the Bald Mountains of North Carolina. Burning may be an important management tool for enhancing the habitat of this species.
