25-year butterfly transect trends. For those butterfly enthusiasts who are interested in the 25-year trends for all Hampshire & Isle of Wight butterfly species, I'm pleased to say that the latest plots (2001-2025) are now available to view on the Butterfly Conservation (Hampshire & Isle of Wight) website. By reading this news you're already accessing the website. To find the 25-year trends simply click on the "Transects" tab, then select "25 year trends". I've attached a selection of three screenshots below so that you can see what the plots look like. There's a page like this for each species. [Posted by Andy Barker]
