Does the black swallowtail butterfly migrate?

Answer 1

Zebra swallowtail butterflies are commonly found near pawpaw trees, the leaves of which are food for their larvae. These trees and butterflies are seen in open woodlands near swamps and rivers, grasslands, savannas and southern pine woods.

Zebra swallowtail butterflies are found in the eastern United States of America, from Minnesota and Wisconsin in the north to Florida and the Gulf States in the south, northeastern Mexico and southeastern Canada. They can be seen in northern areas from late March to August, while they appear as adults from February to December in the south.
