Coordinator notes: There are apparently few records for this species in that county. You saw 2 individuals suggesting this is a resident species in an area rarely visited by butterfly enthusiasts although Nick Lethaby visits that area. Thanks for providing additional information. Your submission is one of great importance and this record will likely be published in the 2014 annual Season Summary in the News of the Lepidopterists' Society, published annually.-Ken Davenport, state coordinator for BAMONA and butterfly coordinator for the southwestern region of the USA for the Lepidopterists' Society.
