Research and translocation of Hermes copper butterflies: Research will begin by translocating Hermes copper butterflies (HCB) from an extant population to habitat where a population has been extirpated in San Diego County due to wildfires and extreme drought. Surveys and monitoring will be conducted at the sentinel sites to collect females and eggs for translocation, as well as at the translocation sites thereafter to ascertain success and for context to future management and monitoring efforts
