Submitted by: Chrustay
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Landed on me and did not want to leave. Assuming that the extreme drought in the area this spring made finding minerals or other nutrients pretty difficult. Irregardless of the drought, I saw several of this species in the area.
Status: Resident

Coordinator notes: BAMONA does not yet recognize cheneyorum as a distinct species, so I'll approve it as rubricata. I guess summer is definitely here!
