Coordinator notes: Your ID is correct...a male. By "American Silver-bordered Fritillary" I presume you know that our North American species as genetically determined is now Boloria myrina. Maybe BAMONA will eventually catch-up with current nomenclature although it can cause much confusion with many participating casual observers! I am sure you understand. Mike
