Where does the Oregon swallowtail live?

The Oregon swallowtail (Papilio oregonius) primarily inhabits the western regions of North America, particularly in Oregon, Northern California, and parts of Idaho and Washington. They are typically found in open woodlands, meadows, and areas near rivers and streams where their host plants, such as various species of citrus and other flowering plants, are abundant. These butterflies prefer habitats with plenty of sun and shelter for basking and resting.
