Erynnis pacuvius

Observation date: May 31, 2025

Coordinator notes: I usually found Erynnis pacuvius callidus near the McGill Campground on Mt. Pinos and just 3 days ago found pacuvius lilius hilltopping at 8000' off the Sherman Pass Rd. in the Sierra in Tulare County, so no problem accepting your record...I see the vital marks!-Ken Davenport
