Almost no studies compare casualties with the actual number of animals crossing roads, but this study reports that birds were four times more likely to survive encounters with cars than mammals; it also included invertebrates and found that thousands of pierid butterflies, Eurema sp., become road kills during migration (Monge-Najera, 1996).

The species experiences favorable periods some years when numbers of the pierid are consistently present at the station, especially from June to August, but out of this period it can mostly be recorded by passing individuals in flight (even disregarding visits to flowers in some cases) or by ovipositing females.
