Azure sp - 2 These appeared like the one in Greene Co. I saw
Thursday, with no white ovescaling dorsally, which I would think would
rule out Summer Azure, and no dark smudges on the margin or centrally
on the ventral hindwing, which should rule out subspecies lucia
Auctorum. The dorsal color was a non-lustrous blue with a hint of
common lilac, which leaves me thinking it must be an Edwards Spring
Azure, Celastrina ladon violacea. I realize this must be recorded as
an Azure sp. without a specimen. However, I would appreciate any
feedback if anyone knows about which detailed features go with which
preferred names.
Eastern Comma - 1
Mourning Cloak - 3
