Coordinator notes: Correct ID of a freshly emerged, heavily marked Rocky Mountain Parnassian. This is actually unusually low in elevation for this mountain species, which is usually found at elevations of 7,800 ft. +. However, with all the Sedum (stonecrop) in the area, any parnassians should be all set to go!
