Boisduval's Blue
Plebejus icarioides

Observation date: May 30, 2026
Submitted by: Cascade Colors
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I'm assuming the 2nd photo is also the same as first? Though the coloration seems noticeably different, so I'm not sure it's the same species. Wondering if the final male is also Boisduval's?
