Heres a list where you can find out which butterflies are protected in Oregon:
Species Profiles — Butterfly Conservation Initiative
Heres a list of Oregon butterflies, but I dont know if its complete or partial:

Personally, I dont collect live critters for my collection, I find enough of them dead along the road and stuck to the front of cars to keep me going.
One thing I really liked about the bugguide was a 'rule' that you dont post pics of dead insects for ID purposes. I like that they were not encouraging the collection of live animals.
