Plebejus acmon

Observation date: July 13, 2018
Submitted by: splatzone
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: But maybe Plebejus lupini?

Verified date: July 17, 2018
Coordinator notes: I would need more habitat and host plant information to decide acmon vs. lupini (now monticola in that area), but the shade of blue and late date argue for acmon-Ken Davenport
