Sonia Moy

One of the students that I supervised, Sonia Moy, graduated yesterday -- she studied the life cycles of two butterflies, Mechanitis lysimnia elisa (Lysimnia clearwing)and Phoebis philea philea (orange-barred sulphur). These species are common in the area, and of commercial value. The project benefited the Nayriri Butterfly house, community-run project at the end of the Inca Trail near the College. She got a score of 86%, considered distinguished!
