Zabulon Skipper
Poanes zabulon

Observation date: May 25, 2025
Date notes: Not sure about the time.
Submitted by: Graycatbird88
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: None.
Status: Resident
Verified by: jmgesell
Verified date: March 08, 2026
Coordinator notes: Wide open HW patch without obvious dark veins traversing favors Zabulon over Hobomok (both are in flight together in the spring - Zabulon has a second flight in later summer whereas the Hobomok only has the single spring flight). FW pattern and antenna don't match what would be expected on a Least. -jmgesell
