The Checker spot butterfly is a common name for various species in the genus Euphydryas, known for their striking checkered patterns on their wings, typically featuring a mix of orange, black, and white colors. These butterflies are often found in meadows, grasslands, and open woodlands, where their larvae feed on specific host plants, mainly in the aster and plantain families. They are notable for their role in ecosystems as pollinators and indicators of environmental health. Some species of Checker spot butterflies are considered threatened or endangered due to habitat loss and climate change.

The Baltimore checker spot butterfly is primarily preyed upon by birds, such as sparrows and warblers. Other predators include spiders, wasps, and predatory insects like dragonflies. They are also vulnerable to parasitism by parasitic wasps and flies.
The population of the Baltimore Checkerspot butterfly is decreasing mainly due to habitat loss and fragmentation caused by agriculture, urban development, and climate change. Additionally, increased pesticide use and invasive species are contributing factors to the decline of this butterfly species. Conservation efforts are being implemented to help protect and restore their habitats.
