Nevada Skipper
Hesperia nevada

Observation date: June 13, 2025
Submitted by: DeepSkyKelly
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I'm struggling on this a bit, but I'm seeing more resemblance to Branded than to Pahaska (which was my second choice), especially on the upperside.
Status: Resident
Verified by: stevecary
Verified date: June 14, 2025
Coordinator notes: a tough group for sure; too early for common branded; pahaska and green are in play, but I think nevada is the best match.
