Coordinator notes: Thanks to Stewart Tomlinson & Paul Prappus (& iNaturalist), this is definitely Apyrrothrix erythrosticta, Spotted Skipper. Still a rare find and this person has already reported it on iNaturalist. :-) ----- At first I thought this was "Dotted Firetip" in the genus Pyrrhopyge and that species is not in BAMONA nor even iNaturalist. It would really have been a rare find!
