Butterflies: Study of distribution of butterfly species count among 5...

Description Usage Format Details Source Examples

Description

One encounters butterflies in most localities in India. Species richness is the total number of different butterfly species encountered in a locality. This total count can be divided into counts of different families (5 families in the present case). It is expected that distribution among the 5 families should be similar across localities that are geographically closer or ecologically similar. Further, some families may have a nearly constant share in different localities. It may then be enough to count species of that family and guess counts in other families.
