Observation date: May 21, 2015
Submitted by: JimEckert
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: On sheet with UV black light.
Status: Resident

Coordinator notes: Although mariona and phalacra may have overlapping ranges, some have determined that only phalacra is in the area where this is photographed. If that is the case, then this is probably phalacra. The tiny white dots scattered throughout the wings also indicate that this is probably phalacra. Good catch.
