Field Notes

Description:

Has a butterfly look of painted lady, but the ID did not match.

Habitat:

Adjacent to a small stream. Altitude 1300+m.

Notes:

Seems to be a rarity, so the location is not exact. Too many of these beauties being sold on collector sites. This specimen has seen better days, so let us celebrate that fact.
