Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Noticed you only had a single, non-photo record for El Paso county, so I figured I'd give you a couple! This one was late in the season for any butterflies; I was surprised to see it.

Coordinator notes: Your ID is correct...there are probably many records for this little blue from El Paso County, just not reported on the BAMONA site. The earliest was by F. Martin Brown, author of Colorado Butterflies (1957), who taught at Fountain Valley School and from where he recorded exilis on the 10th of October...one day after your reported date...just 88 years ago!
