[Robert Mayer]

I posted on my first sighting of Battus philenor in the Arboretum a few weeks ago, but here is a link to it and other recent sightings of Pipelines from my blog:

Lucy Merrill-Hills, who posts frequently on MassLep, was instrumental in identifying the most recent sighting, thanks Lucy.

If you are looking to try to see this lep and have questions on where they are,etc. email me.

Hi Bob,

There have been quite a number of Pipevine Swallowtail sightings in Mass.
over the last 25 years or so, some as far north as Athol, Gloucester, and
Andover. For an historical discussion and map of 1992-2013 sightings, see
my account at

Best,
Sharon
