Coordinator notes: Please provide city names or geographic places in addition to putting a dot on a map. That is real important with choosing between a Fiery Skipper or a Woodland Skipper. Both occur in Fresno County and I have collected a fair amount in that county.-Ken Davenport Note: The dot on the map would suggest you were on the east side of the Sierra in Inyo County!
