Coordinator notes: It appears that there are 3, maybe 4 different fritillaries in your photos but I am only confirming one in the top and second photo. Looks like you also have Speyeria aphrodite, hesperis and possibly atlantis. Please send me the county where you found these. Email me directly: butterfliesofcolorado@hotmail.com Thanks for you submission. Mike
