Chlosyne acastus

Observation date: March 29, 2003
Submitted by: opiliones
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Cool, sunny day. Several individuals were sunning together. I am not 100% positive these two pictures are of the same individual. I have an image of another individual that was on the same bush. I am submitting that photo separately, since it was definitely a different individual.
