Butterflies Plague Imperial Valley Alfalfa Growers
In California's Imperial Valley a butterfly outbreak devastated alfalfa crops in 1909 and recurring years. J. A. Walton sought help from the U S Department of Agriculture, leading to a field study by W B Packard and others in 1910 to identify life stages and develop control methods. The report details the insect's western distribution, adult wing color, egg and larva features, and pupation on alfalfa stalks.
