    • Samoan swallowtail, host plant and habitat, stand characteristics, 2013-2014

    Metadata Updated: November 13, 2025

    Surveys for immature life stages of the Samoan swallowtail butterfly (Papilio godeffroyi) were conducted on 117 individually marked host trees (Micromelum minutum) in eight forest stands on Tutuila Island, American Samoa, at approximately monthly intervals during 2013-2014. The eight stands were mostly in or adjacent to the National Park of American Samoa (NPSA), but one stand was sampled near the western tip of Tutuila, outside NPSA. An additional 74 host trees were assessed for phenological status in the eight stands but were not surveyed for Papilio. This dataset contains information on the area and number of host trees surveyed for Papilio or phenology in each stand.
