Coordinator notes: William, I concur with your coronado/fulvia ID. It seems like Coronado to me, but BAMONA has not yet included Coronado in its options so I'll accept it as Fulvia. In truth, I don't think we yet understand the boundary or overlap between these two species in western NM. so this is a good photo to have in the system.
