Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Following rains, hundreds of these Snout butterflies can be found mud-puddling alongside Sleepy Oranges (Abaeis nicippe) and the occasional Cloudless Sulphur (Phoebis sennae). All seen so far have presumably been male, as I believe female L.carinenta have prominent front legs. I am reporting in the hope that this may provide a data point for migration studies.
