Example field duties include surveying sites for Crystal skipper butterfly presence and abundance; measuring habitat and environmental variables; observing and handling Crystal skippers for demographic experiments and surveys; rearing Crystal skippers from egg to adulthood. Example lab duties include estimating floral nectar production. Example data management duties include data entry.

Schedule:
Monday – Friday between the hours of 8 and 5 is the baseline schedule. However, flexibility will be required during fieldwork, when the work schedule is dictated by biology of the system under study and the weather. Work may begin as early as 6:30am and may occur on weekends.
