Coordinator notes: Based on current research, the Midsummer Tiger or P. solstitius starts its flight immediately following P. canadensis, which would be late June to early July, and are single brooded. Surviving individuals at this time would be extremely ragged/worn. Fresh appearing individuals in your location, this time of year, would be expected to be the second brood of P. glaucus. -Jeff Gesell
