diagnosis : larger ( wingspan : 25 to 31 mm ) than the dorcas copper , males are a duller purple above with much larger black spots on the wings above and below . on the underside the forewing is pale yellow buff and the hindwing is a little browner . the submarginal band of lunules on the hindwing below is yellow . females are similar to males except that the wings above are brown with a partial yellow band beyond the post medial row of black spots .
range : this species is known only from salt marshes in the bay of chaleur , quebec / new brunswick , and the gaspé peninsula , quebec .
is smaller , has tiny black dots on the wings except for a single central spot , the wings above are shining purple , and the wings below are yellow orange ( forewing ) and orange brown ( hindwing ) , with a reddish - orange band of lunules near the margin of the hindwing below .
abundance : the maritime copper is localized to a few salt marshes but it can occur in fair numbers at these sites .
flight season : adults are on the wing from late july until mid - august .
, we treat the maritime copperas a valid species , based largely on the field research in quebec by louis handfield and in new brunswick by reginald webster . a colony of maritime copper at st - siméon - de - bonaventure , quebec , is only six kilometres from a colony of dorcas copper at bonaventure and there is no evidence of intermediates at either site . the marsh at bonaventure is less salty because of the influence of the bonaventure river ; other gaspé locations for dorcas copper are also less salty than the marshes where the maritime copper occurs . maritime coppers observed at several locations in quebec were closely associated with

limted to a few salt marshes in a small area of coastal new brunswick and quebec mainly on the bay of chaleur . very similar range to that of maritime ringlet , a better studied species ( webster , 1999 ) and they co - occur at some sites . also known from nova scotia and prince edward island ( pers . comm with john klymko , aug 2015 ) .
thomas apparently made a rather thorough search of possible habitats in 1979 and found 9 colonies . more recent maps indicate a comparable number .
look for this in suitable habitats , especially those listed by thomas , to monitor status .
should be several in close proximity to allow for recolonization if local extirpations occur .
( < 100 - 250 square km ( less than about 40 - 100 square miles ) ) limted to a few salt marshes in a small area of coastal new brunswick and quebec mainly on the bay of chaleur . very similar range to that of maritime ringlet , a better studied species ( webster , 1999 ) and they co - occur at some sites . also known from nova scotia and prince edward island ( pers . comm with john klymko , aug 2015 ) .
larval foodplant is potentilla egedii . adult nectar plant is sea lavendar limonium nashii .
adults occur from late july to mid august . presumably hibernates in the egg .
a salt marsh containing the larval foodplant ( potentilla egedii ) and sufficient sea lavender for nectaring where a population occurs . minimally a salt marsh where an adult or larva has been collected or photographed .
at least the inland edges of the habitat will be obvious , however it may be unclear how far into the marshes the occurrence extends , but one or both plants may be found mostly near the edges . occurrence boundaries can be approximated by the distribution of the two essential plants . generally the suitable habitat distance should be appropriate within a salt marsh if either essential plant is present .
this is an extremely restricted species that does not leave its habitat . it is unclear how extensive habitats are so the suitable habitat distance is merely a guess . the unsuitable habitat distance is the standard minimum used for animals . it seems likely there is something of a metapopulation near bathurst , but otherwise it is possible all colonies are quite isolated based on the map in layberry et al . ( 1998 ) .
this is a very localized species so do not infer occurrence more than this distance without more information . if both plants do not extend that far use a smaller distance .
use the generic guidelines for the application of occurrence ranks ( 2008 ) . the key for ranking species occurrences using the generic approach provides a step - wise process for implementing this method .

this is a family of small , dainty colourful butterflies . we often see blues , and a little patience will help in identifying them . the coppers are less frequently encountered , although in suitable habitat they can be quite abundant .

, with the exception of four species found in new zealand , two in south africa , one in new guinea and one in java . it is commonly divided into several subgenera , such as
a holarctic genus , with the exception of four species occurring in new zealand and two in south africa ( orus group ) . generic names have been proposed for most of the species groups and also for individual species that do not fit into the species groups , but these are all viewed as synonyms by most modern researchers .
species groups as identified here for the palearctic species are those of bozano & weidenhoffer ( 2001 ) , while the nearctic groups are based on various now synonymized genera described by scudder and others . the group is in need of a phylogenetic analysis .

restricted endemic but no known threat . seems more likely to be a g2 than a g1 , but possibly only one occurrence ( metapopulation ) and almost certainly less than 20 . probably several metapopulations and a few isolated colonies .
known only from white mountains of apache county , arizona . most locations near mcnary , maverick , and greer , apache county ( johnson and balogh , 1977 ) .
possible there is only one metapopulation , very probable there are less than 20 .
grasses . fire suppression results in the invasion of meadow habitats and other openings by dense conifer forests . eventual warm season intense fires could be overly intense and eliminate some populations or permanently alter previously suitable habitats .
needs to be looked for at additional sites to determine actual number of metapopulations and actual distribution .
( < 100 - 250 square km ( less than about 40 - 100 square miles ) ) known only from white mountains of apache county , arizona . most locations near mcnary , maverick , and greer , apache county ( johnson and balogh , 1977 ) .
a small butterfly , reddish with dark spots above , beneath whitish gray with similar spots , orange flush over much of fw but not showing while at rest . in other words a rather typical looking copper .
differs superficially from l . rubidus by more orange colr above and much larger spots . in practice locality would distinguish these two .
presumably like other coppers does move between habitat patches and widely within patches . likely to move along stream corridors especially .
in meadows and ciengas near foodplant which is rumex hymeospalus ( johnson and balogh , 1977 ) . scott and pyle both mention streamside situations for the closely related l . rubidus .
larval foodplant is rumex hymenosepalus ( johnson and balogh , 1977 ) . might use other rumex species if available .
aestivates then hibernates as an egg . larva in spring . pupal stage probably about 10 days , adults apparently about mid june to late august ( johnson and balogh , 1977 ) .
need some information on population size and structure if any active management or protection activities are contemplated .
a location where the species occurs , or has recently occurred , where there is potential for continued occurrence or regular recurrence . minimally a location with the larval foodplants and any other essential habitat features where the species has been verified to occur on the basis of specimens or positively identifiable photographs . high quality occurrences will usually support metapopulations .
no information but since adults are low fliers in open habitats , it is likely dense forests are barriers .
for most species suitable habitats are not often large so the four kilometer figure would seldom apply . apply the 4 km distance in extensive wetland complexes , considering all colonies as part of a single metapopulation occurrence . the four kilometer limit should probably apply in a few other situations where a large geologic feature or community complex contains multiple habitat patches , especially if the foodplant occurs at least occasionally between the main colony sites . it is also very likely ( observed occasionally for l . epixanthe in new jersey and nearly certain for l . dorcas ) that adults move along sunny stream banks , especially if the foodplant occurs in limited amounts along them . thus in most cases the 4 km distance is probably appropriate when wetlands or riparian habitats are connected by streams in fairly open landscapes .
inferred extent is very rarely applicable since most colonies are tiny and the sites obviously fully occupied and only the patch where the observation was made is assumed occupied . however when habitat complexes are truly large , e . g . some northern peatlands with metapopulations of l . epixanthe and l . dorcas , it would be unreasonable not to assume very nearby patches are occupied and in such cases usually either all or none of them are . still apparently more so than most butterflies coppers do sometimes fail to occupy or persist in seemingly suitable proximate habitats , and colonies can be very localized . if the actual foodplant patch itself extends continuously for more than . 5 kilometer presence may be inferred throughout it . in most cases foodplants are patchier than that .

resident in patchy distribution of western north america ( scott 1986 ) . habitats are alpine zone , esp glacial cirques ; open areas in canadian / to alpine zones of ca ; transition to hudsonian zone sagebrush ; and meadows elswhere . hosts plants are usually herbaceous with most known hosts largely restricted to one genus ,
( polygonaceae ) . eggs are laid on or near the host plant singly . individuals overwinter as larvae . there is one flight each year with the approximate flight time late jun - aug15 ( scott 1986 ) .

trained and driven by james rattray , beautide recorded the fastest mile rate ( 1 : 50 . 2 ) after winning the event last year , bettering the mark set by smoken up ( 1 : 50 . 3 ) in 2010 . interestingly , smoken up is the last horse to win the miracle mile consecutively ( 2010 / 11 ) , and also set an australasian record mile rate of 1 : 48 . 5 in winning the len smith mile at menangle in april 2011 . with a slick field engaged on saturday night , that record looks in danger , especially if conditions are perfect and they go crazy up front .
hrv ceo john anderson said renaming a race such as the legends in smoken up’s honour made sense due to the horse’s phenomenal record at sprint trips – having won four len smith miles and two miracle miles , as well as a bevy of other short - course features .

result : lost ! pulled up . . . . . good way to lose $ 100
result : blingiton never looked in doubt & hezarealgem just wasn ' t up to them .
the bettor ' s delight 5 - year - old out of the purdon trained mare scuse me , broke now - retired australian star smoken up ' s track record at menangle by more than 0 . 8 seconds to make her the fastest recorded standardbred over a mile in australasia .
smoken up missed his shot at barastoc grand circuit victory in 2009 / 10 , but friday night ' s ( april 23 ) $ 100 , 000 tabcorp len smith mile is his best chance to snare a harness racing group 1 title this season according to trainer - driver lance justice .
local star ohoka nevada ( mark billinger ) ran a solid second , following smoken up from start to finish after drawing the prime alley in gate one and got within 3m on the line while rising star heza trick ( daryl douglas ) flashed home late to finish third a further 3m away .
justice is excited about returning to steer his stable champion , who is arguably to harness racing what black caviar is to the gallops . in fact smoken up has recently even acquired a black caviar - style compression suit , which he sported on a recent photo shoot for his personal facebook page .
justice , hemmed up in traffic early from his back row draw , moved up parked at the 1800m before wresting the lead from four - time inter champ blacks a fake at the 1400m .

' ' it was the best night because of everything that led up to it . ' '
result : lost ! they did finish top 3 but chilli palmer was simply amazing first up .
result : lost ! handed up the lead & that was race over . not happy jan !
meeting result : that well & truly makes up for last night . won $ 1422 . 60
result : lost ! ended up 4 pegs & was no chance from there . ran on ok
the crowd somewhat waiting for the sugars salute as he put his name on the honour roll alongside his father ross sugars back in 1981 aboard murdock miss seemed as if he was restricted by the power still in his hands as smoken up crossed the line ready to travel another lap at that speed .
result : lost ! stiff . . mach doro leading folded up like a pack of cards and leaders back and rochnroll were badly held up . hit the line strong but was never a chance after that
19 units outlay for 26 . 24 unit return . should ' ve put up the suggested bets !
result : 4th . led early & handed up to the 3rd fav but we didn ' t need it to hand up as well . end 3 pegs and was too far back to have an impact
short n sweet tonight . i ' ll be concentrating on a big miracle mile write up for followers
result : 4th by a whisker . ended up 4 back the pegs & was never winning from there
with no provision for a countback , should smoken up run second on saturday night he and blacks a fake would be declared joint winners . the only time in the 31 - year history of the championship that two horses finished on the same points was in 2003 when double identity and young rufus both collected 17 points .
whilst i don ' t think he can win , he certainly looks an attractive place bet at big odds . first up at melton a fortnight ago he copped a check early on and settled at the tail of the field . rounding the home turn on the back of abettorpunt , he rushed up to the leaders and looked a chance , only to have his run end short of the line . 2nd up from gate 2 , he will be the first to the pegs and will more than likely take a sit on smoken up . that ' ll give him every opportunity via the sprint lane , hopefully enough to snag a placing
result : winner ! a nice end to a frustrating day . up to $ 10 offered up on fixed odds early but i missed that . still very very happy with the $ 8 i got . can ' t believe it paid that much . finished up $ 4 fixed s - tab . collect $ 200
safari still turned in a splendid staying effort . re - handicapped to 10 metres , gath as expected wasted little time after the field had been dispatched in taking his horse forward to sit outside the leader smoken up nz . justice , probably expecting such an aggressive move , in the following two laps every now and then allowed his horse on the inside to surge , seemingly then preventing gath from dictating tactics up front with safari .
waiting for them will be the glenn douglas - trained bold cruiser , who travelled up on tuesday afternoon .
meeting result : another poor result today . got some ground to make up this week ! lost $ 128
result : winner ! sneaky alright . snuck up right along the pegs to blouse them . $ 185 collect
smoken up attracted a crowd of 5000 people , the largest since the 2007 interdominion and although they had to wait an extra hour for the most anticipated race on the local racing calendar the $ 100 , 000 sky channel sa pacing cup due to power problems plagued globe derby park , there was no fan disappointed when leaving the course .
the start is critical for his chances but my early memories of him have him flying the gate early , ideally crossing bitobliss . even if he can ' t cross he ' s likely to settle on the back of smoken up which isn ' t the worst place to be . at $ 11 on bet365 , that seems crazy value
this 6yo gelding would be out of place lining up in the miracle mile field tonight . had to work extremely hard 3 wide the trip vs beautide in the newcastle mile 2 starts back & had the audacity to kick on & finish 2nd . last start he had a good smothered 3 pegs but had to peel 3 wide to get into clear running and wasn ' t disgraced running 3rd to smoken up in very quick time . he ' s going
not real keen on this meeting with plenty of sa visitors arriving at mildura . hard to match up the form
result : 3rd . ntd ! cant take a trick . astronaut hands up the lead & ruins everything . .
forget last start at mt gambier . go back 2 starts where in challenged for the lead early eventually ending up with a 1x2 sit . wobbled a bit when rounding the final turn but once balanced up , finished really well to finish 2nd . draws to lead today and if he runs up to its run 2 back , it wins .
one of the most improved pacers in the country over the past 2 years . i remember losing my cash on him in a c1 event just over a year ago at melton but tritton has certainly found the key and i ' d love to see it win . has amazing early speed and looks likely to cross smoken up early . looked to be one level below group 1 class when leading in his previous 4 races before taking a sit last start and what improvement he showed . he handed up to smoken up and was only beaten 1 . 2 metres in a slick 1 . 49 . 9 second mile rate . he certainly had his chance to win last week and whilst it ' s hard to see him winning here tonight , with the perfect sit likely to be his , is a strong place chance .
huge day of harness racing with great fields to boot . nothing but value tips below . we ' ll need some luck but based on the odds , i ' ll only need one to get up to end up even :
while smoken up nz was playing its cat - and - mouse game with safari , anthony butt was having a dream run on the back of the leader with report for duty nz , with gavin lang on its back with advance attack nz . following safari in the one - out line was manwarra goforgold , then reba rajah , with divisive then running ninth .
australia ' s premier sprint race will be run without australasia ' s fastest pacer following today ' s shock news that lance justice has aborted plans to contest the miracle mile with smoken up . the melton trainer - driver confirmed that the six - year - old was still suffering from an injury that had hindered his entire campaign and even if he was offered one of the remaining two invites for $ 500 , 000 grand circuit feature he wouldn ' t be taking it up .
result : winner ! a horse that ' s going places that ' s for sure . up $ 51 . 50
result ; lost . not a bad run , just not up to these . run 6th not far off them .
result : 4th . up to $ 35 around got the perfect sit on mind the wire ' s back and then nathan jack decides to hand up to cramp . . . runs a good 4th . frustrating , very frustrating for the punter
but that was forgotten when the best horse in australasia lined up with lance justice and the defending champion taking centre stage .
“he pulled up well after friday night’s race and has done well since , so there’s no reason not to go . ”
result : winner ! handed up the lead which gave us some nervous moments but got the job done . collect $ 194
result : winner ! opened up at close to $ 2 but was smashed in late . won easily . collect $ 130
put up a huge effort to win the nz cup last start after missing away from the stand start . he was sent
result : 4th . no it wasn ' t . was an ok run & im tipping will run better 2nd up .
it ' s always a risk backing horses first up but this fella has had 4 good trials in the lead up to this race and has run well in all of them . this is an extremely weak race and he has won against much better . from the draw should either lead or be sitting with cover up on the lead . looks a good ew chance .
lawn derby awards for pacers . aged horse and gelding of the year : smoken up ; aged mare of theyear : make mine cullen ; three year old colt / gelding of theyear : sushi sushi ; three year old filly of the year : bellas delight ; two year old colt / gelding of the year : three over three ; two year old filly of the year : sensational gabby .
months it followed smoken up everywhere over the unsuitable 2240 metres and stuck to it ' s guns well only being beaten 5 metres . tonight he draws perfectly to follow favourite five star anvil over the sprint trip , the distance he races best . if the favourite holds the lead , garnet river will be sitting right behind it awaiting the sprint lane . at the big odds , worth a go
we had her x - rayed on saturday and it showed up to be a broken sesamoid bone ,
purdon said .
result : 4th . never got a proper crack at them after the 1 broke and dentona ended up 4 pegs . good run
result : lost ! favourite gallops in front of it , ends up stuck out 3 wide the last lap & dropped out .
went super against some smart types first up from an unsuitable draw . gets gate 1 here . leads and wins for mine .
has the superior speed from the front line and shouldn ' t be handing up today . looks perfectly suited on this track .
should lead now with the early scratching from this race . put up a great effort at melton when leading from a wide draw
result : 2nd ! ! finally a collect . . $ 8 offered up on bet365 thanks very much . . collect $ 255
ran some quick times in a recent terang trial suggesting it ' ll be ready for this first up . if it was a
meeting result : horrific night of punting . time to pick myself up & get it back tomorrow . lost $ 367 . 50
result : winner ! opened up at $ 3 and smashed into $ 1 . 80 fixed & won easily . collect $ 100
result : winner ! opened up $ 2 . 5 & smacked into $ 1 . 9 . won easily . collect $ 95
result : lost ! never put into the race & my ticket was screwed up a long way out after the leaders walked .
the presense of dmso on its own is very surprising . everyone in this industry knows that it is tested for and to present a horse with dmso in its system in 2011 would seem like professional suicide by lance . it just doesnt make sense unless the trace amounts found were present in something else that lance gave to smoken up . i am aware that dmso is present in trace amounts for instance in itpp to mention just one possability . that would seem far more likely than the random contamination explanation being offered up at present
3rd up here and is a sneaky chance . 1st up run was just average after only getting out late from 5 back the fence beaten 24 metres in r2 - 4 class . followed that up with a good 3rd to freemason who is running very well atm , in c4 / 5 class beaten 8 metres after again being buried 4 pegs . has enough gate speed to hold the 1 ' s back here but that is likely to hand up . if the 1 does hand up , that will probably put pay to sunrise ' s winning chances but i think shes a big place chance at odds from the draw and small field suits .
this is a huge step up in class from last week where they did run the last half slowly to allow it to sneak up the sprint lane to win but i can ' t ignore the $ 16 . 80 available the place . potential collect $ 168
has been trialling very well for this first up tilt & should be suited by some early speed and the fact it ' ll position in front of the favourite . it ' ll hold all the aces & if it runs up to it ' s trial form
has been unlucky since resuming . 1st up was attacked and ran a 27 second 3rd quarter only to get run down late in a 56 second last half . not bad first up . @ nd up got polaxed & still managed to run 3rd , albeit beaten a fair way . leads here tonight & with it ' s dangers drawn wide over the short trip , looks a good thing .
looks like getting the gun run behind modern mary & there looks to be a fair bit of pressure in this race . if there is she will be the one smoken the pipe awaiting the sprint lane . i just hope her sprint is good enough to get the money .
took a while to wind up last start but once it did hit the line very strong . gets the same draw here today and the 1 shouldn ' t be handing up the lead today so behind the leader scenario should pan out and the extra distance suits .
result : lost ! never put into the race after getting held up in the middle of running . . just one of those horses
looks very well suited in c1 class today . put up a great effort against eliseos falcon last start & this looks much weaker .
looks the leader today & should get every opportunity to bring up it ' s first win in victoria today , as long as it settles . led from a wide gate over the longer trip a month ago & just got too fired up . hopefully he settles today
result : lost ! got stuck in the death and put up a big effort , not beaten far . will win one soon .
wa form has held up very well in recent years . his run in the chariots of fire in march where he finished on the
result : lost ! got smashed in front & wouldn ' t hand up in a very quick first 3 quarters . weakened right out
result : 2nd ! just not good enough to pick up the well backed fav . thought she had it with 200 to go .
result : lost ! had me worried when it was refusing to score up but in the end got a flyer to lead . just got too fired up in front and went too quick and was left a sitting shot . never really wanted to be on in the run
jekyll and hyde horse who wins this race easily if he runs up to his win a few starts back when leading and winning in 1 : 53 seconds . he can mix up his form so expect anything but i ' m happy to have a small go against these
result : lost ! started $ 41 . led early , handed up & i thought had a massive chance on the turn but hung like ron jeremy and wouldn ' t take the sprint lane run . . just sums up my luck at the minute . another loss !
it is a great way to bring up my 50th group one and i still think there are more big wins in him .
up to yesterday nathan jack , under suspension , was in fifth place in the victorian drivers’ championship with a career - best 165 winners .
just eats up mile racing and showed that it can ' t just lead from leading last week after blowing them away from the 1 x 1 . will lead here tonight with rogers joy likely to hand up . i can ' t see anything running him down from there .
result : lost ! broke after the start & ended up 5 back the pegs . never likely from there but did well to finish 5th
result : 4th . thought it was a massive chance on the turn but wasn ' t up to these . only just missed the place
result : 2nd . ended up 3 pegs & got out too late . with a better draw next start it wins . collect $ 51
result : lost ! disappointing run . got fired up after douglas drove it out hard early & pulled for the remainder of the race .
he has had little luck against victoria ' s best in it ' s past 2 starts but has still finished just out of the prizemoney . you only have to go back 3 starts at this track and distance to see the talent he has where he gave smoken up an almighty fright when he just peaked on his run late finishing 2nd . he steps back a grade in class here and is a great each way bet .
tinted cloud 1 : 51 . 2 , sire of almighty smoken up 1 : 48 . 5 $ 3 , 603 , 415 , jaccka clive 1 : 53 . 8 $ 483 , 263 , richard henry 1 : 49 . 6 $ 453 , 305 , nemisis 1 : 48 . 2 , one of only a handful of sires represented by three 1 : 50 a / nz performers . by sire of sires in the pocket .
headline act of the locals will be last week’s gold coast cup winner be good johnny ( barrier 10 ) , while runner - up good lookin girl ( five ) will also back up with atomic ark ( eight ) and be diligent ( rodm – 11 ) the new blood .
justice paid tribute to decorated jasper after the race but never doubted his stable star would rack up win number 30 at his 58 th start .
i liked it ' s run last start when it was held up 4 back the rail & never really got racing room . should ' ve
leds again tonight & i don ' t think it ' ll hold up . if that happens is a very sneaky chance of knocking them off
result : lost ! the 1 doesn ' t hand up as expected & the 2 left to sit parked . that was all she wrote .
fired up for this race with a win over the pacers in a trial during the week , a very good indicator on how well he ' s travelling . draws to follow stent every here , most likely to end up 3 pegs , but with late luck , is right in this .
5 : smoken up : i love this old fella for the fact that he gives his all every time he races . probably holds the key to the race . if he can ' t lead early and settles in the death , it ' s going to take on every brave driver to try and wrestle that position away from him . wasn ' t disgraced in the miracle mile last week but showed that he finds the best of the best a little

. there are two distinct black marks on the pronotum and often two additional pale ones .
they develop the red color just before their winter hibernation . when they emerge the red slowly disappears into a pale green colouring with faint gold tessellation . this takes about a month with the males generally slightly advanced (
female laying eggs - the colour of the eggs will change to a more grey - brown as the shell hardens .
mass strandings can be seen on beaches . some theories are that the beetles fly out to the moon shine reflected on the water , and then become stranded , monoculture ( tree farm style ) plantings generate large numbers of particular species .
