Coordinator notes: ID is for the Crescent, not the Common Buckeye. A Pearl Crescent would be favored based on the amount of dark highlighting of the veins, but females can be next to impossible to differentiate without a clear view of the ventral surface of the antennal clubs or in association with a confirmed male of the species. -jmgesell
