Coordinator notes: I know they can be confusing Jon but this is the Callippe Fritillary (subspecies megamacula). Edwards' would more likely be found at lower altitude on the western slope...callippe is much more common and the overall greenish hindwings with shiny silver spots make ID easy on this one. Edwards' will be a larger Frit with a darker green-brown disc color and large spots too. Keep snapping photos, you might find one up your way. Mike
