Woodland Habitat Corridor

Post by PhilBJohnson »

Q1. How wide did an isolated "Woodland Corridor" need to be to support a sustainable colony of White Admiral butterfly species, within itself? (Assuming, for example a deer or some other animal, needed to get from one field to another and have somewhere to hide, or graze).
(One might want to consider a south facing edge for nectar rich brambles and a north facing side for ovipositing females to explore honeysuckle there).
Q2. How mature (Age of "honeysuckled" trees) did that "woodland corridor" need to be, to support a sustainable colony of Limenitis camilla?
Kind Regards,
