Coordinator notes: If this is pacuvius, it would likely be on a hilltop. But I can't tell size in this photo nor is there a specific locality, I had what I thought were pacuvius on a hilltop at Owls Barn in Ventura County May 22nd because of their small size, but they turned out to be small propertius, the recent unseasonal cold weather?-Ken Davenport. The brown hindwings point to propertius.
