Euphilotes enoptes

Observation date: June 26, 2025
Submitted by: kevin.burls
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: On Eriogonum elatum. I've read of the possible glaucon in this area but this doesn't appear to be that (to me).
Status: Resident
Verified by: Ken Davenport
Verified date: August 28, 2025
Coordinator notes: It this is Eriogonum elatum, it would better fit an enoptes, but if aridornum it is unlikely we can confirm using photos---we can only see partial field marks and don't have whole specimens to examine-Ken Davenport
