Question:
Thanks for replying to my query about woolly bear caterpillars. I have checked all available reference sources in my local library and bookstores. In addition, I did check the NEWTON nature guides. What I need now is an expert (or two), so that I can go beyond reference book type of information - get more in depth if at all possible. That's why I asked for suggestions for an expert I could contact.

You might try here, nothing specifically about butterflys but you might be able to email staff at U.mich for help.
