During the first ten years of the JBMS these volunteers walked over 3,600 miles and counted exactly 122,279 butterflies.\u003cbr\u003eThis book unveils the results of the JBMS's first ten years of monitoring. The butterfly records are analysed and combined with habitat data, historical records and other information to offer an insight into the diversity, abundance and status of all Jersey's butterfly species. As might be expected, the picture is mixed with some species doing better than others.\u003cbr\u003eThe health of Jersey's butterflies is discussed and suggestions are made as to how species' populations and diversity can be encouraged to expand cross the island.\u003cbr\u003eThis book also summarises historical records and acts as a guide to all of Jersey's known butterfly species from the past and present.\u003cbr\u003eFeatures of this report include:\u003cbr\u003eA guide to all of Jersey's current and historical butterfly species.\u003cbr\u003eA summary of ten years of intensive butterfly counting.\u003cbr\u003eClear colour photographs of all the species featured.\u003cbr\u003eInformation on the health of Jersey's butterfly populations.\u003cbr\u003eAdvice on the conservation and promotion of butterflies.","brand":"Societe Jersiaise","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49893864243440,"sku":"9780901897558","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780901897558","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
