Doug,

I think you have nailed it; the photos in Butterflies of the East Coast reveal a pattern of veins that is almost identical to the pattern of veins of your skipper, but as you say much more worn. I've had Lace-winged Roadside-Skipper in the yard a couple of times lately, and if the same individual was involved, it appeared more worn the second time I saw it than it was a week or so earlier.

Was any cane in the area where you found it?

Today, 27 August 2011, Doug Bruce and I spotted and photographed a skipper
that we are unable to identify.  Doug will post his photos and mine are
here:

This skipper was photographed by the small stream in the City Park of Bean
Station, Grainger County, TN.  Any help will be appreciated.

Best regards,

Harold Howell
