Coordinator notes: This is a Euphydryas Checkerspot I assign to chalcedona rather than E. colon based on the BAMONA checklist for this county and according to Warren (2005) in his Oregon Publication published by Colorado State Museum in 2005. Your individual is an aberrant individual further clouding more specific determination. Ken Davenport, filling in for Dana Ross.
