Ovoposición en Tamaulipas
This spring, biologist Alfonso Banda has been documenting sightings of monarch eggs and larvae in his state of Tamaulipas.

"Es algo que no estaba registrado que hubiera una actividad importante de ovoposición en la parte centro-sur de nuestro estado, cuando se creía que la mariposa ovopositaba hasta que llegaba a Texas."

"The importance of oviposition in the south central part of our state is something that wasn't documented before. It has been believed that the butterfly does not lay eggs until it reaches Texas."
