I have been conducting research on monarch butterflies, Danaus plexippus, in California for close to 20 years. Sometimes my telephone seems to ring off the hook with questions about monarchs from interested people. To allow people access at any time especially when I am not available, this webpage has been developed.

In the future, I hope to add sections on seasonal summaries, updates, and other pieces of interest.

If you have further questions or suggestions, my office is located in the  Science Building.  My office is in SCI287, or you can write me at:

Santa Monica College 1900 Pico Blvd Santa Monica, CA 90405-1628. (310) 434-4702 e-mail: sakai_walter@smc.edu or danausakai@aol.com
